    Order of Takovo - French made?


    Recommended Posts

    Dear gentlemen,

    I've known that they're were several producers who made the Serbian order of Takovo, f.e. Rothe, Scheid, Leser, ...

    But were they also made in France? By Arthus Bertrand?

    Or is this commander a Russian type? I do not see it so good, but I might notice a mark of AB on the bottom (more detailed photo's will follow), but no Boar's head...

    No other hallmarks were noticed

    I'm also not sure if that's a hallmark.
    There are some examples that are not marked.
    If you could post a bigger image of the front and back side of the order I think I'd be able to give you definite answer if that's really Rothe's piece or not.

    Thanks Paja, it's helpfull.

    Comparing to the info you gave me, the chance is big that it is a Rothe. I'll try to make some more pics of the details. I used to believe that all order made by Rothe were hallmarked, but apparently I'm wrong :)

    You are welcome! Most of the Takovo Orders are hallmarked, Rothe usually put the mark on suspension ring or loop.
    Looks like this one somehow escaped from the workshop before that :)
    Anyway, a great catch, congrats! :beer:
