Update!

So this "unique SS cultural Wewelsburg piece" finds a new home for the insane price of 1261, 50 Euros!!!

Since the buyer has had more than 2000 deals due to his rating I bet we´ll see that piece popping up on a dealer´s website in the near future

I am eagerly waiting for the evidence coming along with that pseudo-SS cultural piece

Watch out and let us know if and where it pops up!

this item is not German produced, it is a typical kind of french or belgium art around 1900.

this item is not German produced, it is a typical kind of french or belgium art around 1900.

So that means... Himmler came from Belgium???

What about the identical piece (documented) sold by Hermann Historica auctions some years ago?

[Thorsten B.]

Even the best auction house cannot know everything - and does not give any guarantuee regarding the doubtless authenticity of the items they offer anyway, just have a look in their AGB.

I did not put a bid on that lamp - not at Hermann´s and not in Ebay - and I know why.

Regarding authentic Wewelsburg cultural pieces



Maestro - these bronze guys indeed look like the Oscar figurines.

Now back to the history and the circumstances of - the very few known - authentic cultural items manufactured by the SS-smithy at Wewelsburg castle:

The SS-smithy was found and started their work in 1935, at the latest in autumn time of that year - and was located in the ruined north tower, the biggest one of the three and that one is also depicted on one of the very few written articles about the whole Wewelsburg project in late of 1934 in one of the early FM-issues showing the renovation of the catle on it´s cover.

A master smith and three of his students (Gesellen from the Werkkunstschule Dortmund started manufacturing unique cultural master pieces out of iron.

They developed and indeed created a pagan germanic style of their very own - these four smiths were the créme-de-la-créme among all smiths at least in Westphalia and so are their products!

They created any possible piece made of wrought iron for the coming and very well planned pagan germanic interior of the SS-Schule Haus Wewelsburg - that was the name at that time in that development and process at that time.

Among their production range were door handles, collars for the door keys, frames, bars for holding window curtains and tapestries, frames for the doors of closets and sideboards, any kind of lamps, hand rails for the stairs, flower pots for Kurt Daluege in Berlin and on special demand of Margarethe Himmler for their house in Gmund/Tegernsee as well as candleholders - just any possible interior and exterior for renovating and decorating Wewelsburg castle and the additional SS-buildings in and around Wewelsburg.

A specialty of the SS-smith became the massive extraordinary national emblems for SS-barracks and many other SS-buildings - one very impressive example had been auctioned by Hermann Historica in Munich at one time.

Their favourite pagan element of decoration were runic symbols, flowers, trees of life, different sorts of sunwheels and the saxonion pagan sanctum - the Irminsul.
