A couple of Cultural items

[Thorsten B.]

Here is another example:

This piece could also enlighten a Wehrmacht or NSDAP building - at least in this case it was chosen by the responsible officials to highlight the Kasino of an SS barrack.

So, due to the location, is it purely an SS cultural piece now?

Not necessarily.

So is it purely an NS cultural piece then?

Not really either - it is what it is:

An NS/SS cultural item.

Chronik problem

Back to real cultural beauty now....

Important to the nordic world view were these family history books containing sets of ahnentafel....I like the nice pattern on the covers.

A boxed example for my collection!

[Anthony Evans]

Although its not as cool as a burning piece of wax holder I got in 7 of these the other day

[TrondK]

Very nice "familien chronike"

[Thorsten B.]

Yes, the Familien-Chronik looks very nice.

And these FM-Zeitschriften are a treasure of info.

More NS/SS cultural beauties:

And another interesting cultural product of that manufacturer:

Does anyone recognize the location?

[Thorsten B.]

Ok - now it should be obvious.

Karinhall

Karinhall

[roche]

I possess this place mat but I do not know its period

[Steve T]

Chinese fire dragons, not European. Swastika used by many countries.

[Thorsten B.]

Karinhall

Yes - that is correct.

All new objects of illumination at Carinhall and it´s surroundings were cultural products of that manufacturer, just the same with almost any other official or private NS/SS building!

There is one exception: Wewelsburg castle.

The lamps and candleholders there were indeed pure SS cultural objects and products since all objects of illumination were created and manufactured by the local SS castle smithy - most of these SS cultural beauties are missing.

Here is another room of Carinhall with two of these cultural beauties:

The Bibliothek in the third (and last) erected part of Carinhall.
