Don't buy. It's a fake.

That is very true, Andy. Thank you very much for your kind words.
Despite the rarity of the Lippe House Order with Swords I could recently acquire another ribbon bar with it.
Is there a possibility of IDing this one? I am not sure if the second ribbon is the Carl-Friedrich Order or just the Merit Medal.
Alll the Best
Nicolas
Unfortunately this ribbon bar was lost during transport. If anyone sees it by chance, please contact me.

Very nice bar. I am pretty sure it is a second row.

This one was shown years ago on WAF. Good bar, definitely a Friedrichsorden in fourth place.

This could be the bar of later Generalveterinär Dr. med. vet. Karl Kiesewetter. Born in Gotha, he is listed with EK2, EH3b and HT in the Reichswehr ranklists. In the 1914 ranklist no EH3b is listed yet, but he could have received it after the publication of the ranklist.

Hello,
I would like to present this bar which I am trying to ID for quite some time now.
I have hopes for an ID as the combination hints to a higher position during the 1930s and 40s.
Potential suspects so far after my research:
Generalstabsarzt Dr. Karl Kersting (1882-1968)
Received EK1, RKM3, HH
Retired on 31.03.1936, unsure if he received the shortly before his retirement created Wehrmacht-DAs.
Inspector of the German Red Cross in Military-District X, Hamburg (01.01.1936-26.06.1939)
Received KVK2X im 2.WK.
Marinegeneralarzt Dr. Willi Wendtlandt (01.08.1884-)
Received EK2, RKM3, HH, Chefarzt des Marinelazaretts Wilhelmshafen (1928)
Maybe career in the DRK?
Marine-Stabsarzt d.R. Prof Dr. Max Otten (1877-1962)
Received EK2, RKM3, HH (1918)
Unsure about his activies in the 1930s, famous doctor.
Any help would be appreciated!
Best regards
Nicolas

Thank you very much, really great info.
Wolfgang Freiherr von Gersdorff died in 1936.
I think Mannlich-Lehmann is my favorite, but no way to be sure.
Best regards

The medal bar is post-1934, where Imperial-era regulations were not always followed.
I actually have a handful of names, with one strong possibility, to go with it. I wonder where it ended up.
May I ask which names you got for it? I don't own the medal bar, but this miniature chain.
Like the bar, the chain is from Godet. I think they could have belonged together once, even though the wedding medal is missing.
Later Generalveterinär Dr. med. vet. Paul Kämper had this combination (plus DA25).
Best regards

Hello there,
I just received these three bars and wanted to show them.
The combination of the biggest bar is a little bit exotic, not sure if the bar is real.
Any help with the correct identification of ribbons is very welcome.
Best regards
Nicolas

The previous owner is correct. Both Kaehne and Barchewitz had this combination. Kaehne also received the Russian Order of St. Stanislaus, but due to the war many German officers would not wear enemy awards, so that does not exclude him.
Both were alive in the 1930s so they would have added the Ehrenkreuz für Frontkämpfer, and both were Forstbeamter so they may have received the Treuedienst-Ehrenzeichen. But they may have had new ribbon bars made rather than tear up the older ones. Kaehne was killed in an Allied bombing of Berlin on the night of 22./23.11.1943. Barchewitz died on 7.2.1974 in Lüneburg.
By coincidence I found this nice photo on eBay today. Possibly Major a.D. Kurt Kaehne as an Oberleutnant (?). The ribbon bar matches mine (just a different order) and the EK1 rules out Barchewitz.
It was also taken in Berlin-Charlottenburg, the residence of Kaehne.

Vince is right.
The order of saxon orders varies on bars. I have seen many examples of wrong orders of precedence.
Look at the bars of GL Johann Pflugbeil and GM Johannes Hahn for example.
