Hi cultural lovers,
Here comes another wooden beauty - representing the eternal circle of life (Spirale) and the eternal circle of the year with it´s four seasons and twelve months represented by twelve of the most distinctive flowers and fruits as gifts of nature within the Reich.
Constructed as a bowl with a height of 6 cm - and an impressive diameter of 40 cm.

I could go for the apples, pears and grapes, the pine twigs and nuts look a bit chewy though!Originally posted by Thorsten B. View PostThank you - here is some more food.
Plate is in good shape apart from losing its shellac, I'd be tempted to clean and re-coat, it would look fantastic displayed on a piece of DHW furniture

Nice piece of oak furniture, but I see no TR cultural interest in the motifs.Originally posted by H-U Rudel View PostComment

It`s from the father of my grandmother, he was a SS member. But my grandmother doesn`t know if this piece has SS relations.
kind regards

It looks like it could have been made in the time of the TR and its a good looking piece but the symbols are what could be found both before and after that time also. Nothing SS specific as far as I see but I'm sure some of our German members can comment with better knowledge than I.Originally posted by H-U Rudel View PostComment

This type of chest has been made in quite some numbers and in different sizes within the 70ties, 80ties and even today - after throwing away all the lovely old traditional oak furniture pieces in german households in the 50ties and 60ties and replacing it with Chrom- and Resopal-postmodern-retro-Bauhaus-functionary-Bim-Bam-Bums-fu**-off-sh*t-pieces of pseudo-furniture...
...people realized that they just lost their culture and tried to get back a homy and comfy atmosphere and so wrought iron and oak stuff was introduced in the modernized households again and this chest is one of the typical pieces from that retro-peasant style aera.
Can get you ten of these within a week.
The quality and finish is different from the real traditionally handmade pieces of the TR period and does not have a real natural apperance and quality either.Comment
