A couple of Cultural items

[ETN]

Uscha,
tell me about the "cast" on top of the cabinet. Is that a cast to form julleuchters? Or if not--what is it?
And a very nice photo.

Yes, please! It appears to be part of the mold to a Julleuchter. If there are original Julleuchter molds that survived the war...

Ah yes, candle holders!

Wood, iron and clay, I like it

Thanks Steve and yes, all of the elements are represented.

[Thorsten B.]

Yes, please: wood and iron!

[ErichS]

Yes, please: wood and iron!

Well Thorsten, I see that you have taken "wood and iron" up a notch!

[Thorsten B.]

And sometimes I prefer only iron

[Steve T]

Yes, please: wood and iron!

Nice bit of wood too

[Thorsten B.]

Or what about this: oak tree made of iron

[Steve T]

Or what about this: oak tree made of iron

Nice too, so now we need some nice red clay, Uscha's friends slipcast mould and we can make some Julleuchter

I am not sure if one would consider this a "cultural" item, but I like it and would like to share with you this very rare piece.

Jozef,

It is indeed a very nice and rare piece - in general citations within the SS were designed by Karl Diebitsch and this is the best one.

Is there any hint that is has been printed by Mayr in Miesbach?

Thank you very much for showing!
