I thought it would sit on your head for enlightment.

?

Feeling a little Froggy today?

[Thälmannpionier]

NICE!! thanks alot for the help..

I already grabbed it..was kind of a risk buy,because I only knew these from photos..didnt think they are that big in real also appears like barely used in the past..

I would be happy if someone can PM me what really to look for on this item, because its still a myth to me as they all somehow differ a little in appearance and Allach markings. Is there a certain pattern that is the same on any piece?

Andreas

P.S. better check your desk again Herr Doktor;-)

No need for a PM here: just study some other pics of original examples and compare them to copies and fakes and give yourself the lesson.

It is not too hard and based on your own experiences you will enable yourself to judge a good piece from a bad one - and don´t forget to get the issue 6/2000 of Klaus Patzwall´s "Militaria" with the article about the Julleuchter!

I studied photos for hours and hours and learned of the different types but I found many Julleuchter differ a little from the other (probably also because the photo quality itself is different in any photos)
I mean the most fakes I have seen are very obvious and can be spotted from the far

But the fact that there are no strict measurements because its handmade and the fact that it actually doesnt look like in the "real world"called fine jewelery artwork but has the same price tag, makes me paranoid of high and fakes..so I tought there is that little something same on each Leuchter

Well

now that you mention it, I do try to save during the Winter.

Yes, it does look fine. However, it is not the hardest thing to copy so unfortunately you can never be absolutely sure unless you get the one from your grandfather.

Looks like a fine one to me as well! On my wanted list...

Congrats to a nice piece!

Cheers,
