Thank you, however it is not match to your Duo miniature Set

Yes I remember this seller. The question is whether those St Alexander high classes boxes were made for his fake Sets or he used the one already made for his sinister activity I am still looking my files for low class box

He used to have You can ask him The golden rule is if you do not ask the answer is NO. He might have some left over material

Thanks for the comments

I checked the site currently no such ribbons for sale You can ask the seller

Thanks

Nice Order I still believe that the Order could be traced one or other way Cheers

Hi, Here is a Set for the republican issue of the Order for Civil Merit awarded to the one of the body guards of Georgi Dimitrov The Document was issued in late 1949 . What is unusual is that the text with the name of the awarded person was typed not hand written

It is very rare ribbon There is internet site that sells reproduction Bulgarian ribbons Sometimes they were made from original materials I will try to copy it and list it Regards Here is the link to the site http://www.ribbonsshop.com/

I agree

Hi New World Thank you for listing more boxes. As i stated it looks like only boxes for The Order of St Alexander were made.

I think i have picture of one of them I will find and list it

Nice photos, Thanks

I agree

Hi New World, Obviously, they made boxes for most of the high classes of the Order of St Alexander Surprisingly i have not seen any for the other Bulgarian Orders??!!

Yes and No. The might have been made to fill the gap in the market. many originals were damaged over the time I also suspect that they have been used for the small waive of fake high classes Sets including the Order of St Alexander Any way they are very nice if the originals are missing Better then nothing. The only problem has been when they are sold the sellers did not disclose knowingly or not knowingly that they were late reproduction Those decorations, sold on the recent Auctions around Europe ,had one thing in common- the boxes looked so identical like the have been made for this purpose

Hi GM1, It is amazing pair of miniatures i agree the quality is exceptional In my opinion they are related to WW2 period Platinum was not as popular during WW1 and earlier periods. However that is my opinion only. Tracing the recipient will be difficult task , however not impossible We need some one from the Belgian collectors/members with access to the right information. Congrats on the stunning pair

Hi 922F, Yes yours and mine boxes are identical , Only Class and size difference. It looks like the same "maker' Any way they are good to hold the corresponding Sets in case of lack of original one

Great ! You have a nice Buls Commander 18 Carat Gold This mark is not very clear, however most of the Buls commanders are not marked for gold, however they are all gold That was the practice those days Cheers

The miniature from my last listing is not marked however it look like Silver The front is gilded that has worn a bit

Hi GM!, Congrats very nice Buls Commander Order of lLeopold 1 Can you list the the size and the weght of the Order A Commander Class should be 85 mm long 55-56 mm wide and the Weigt should be 40 + grams I The crown on the back can be pushed out very gently with a fine blunt tool. Do not use forceps because you can make marks on the crown Gold is very soft material Bear in mind it is 18 carat Gold It is nice that is marked Look for a very small mark on the crown for gold - Horse head Usually the mark for gold is on one of the lower rim of the crown -very fine one here is mine Buls Commander
