I think that the exceptions prove the rule!
By the way: the same dental surgeon became the order of the Lion & Sun. There are no pin holes on both ribbons.
Happy 2012, Jens.

Hallo Markus,
The OMD maker WOLFERS do not exist any more, he stooped with the production around 1930. The name was “Maison Wolfers” and “ancienne Maison Wolfers” carried the name until the mid 1970’ies. The jewelers Wolfers are still active in Brussels, but this is an outer branch of the family clan.

Hallo Markus,
The star was awarded to a dental surgeon in Antwerp, because he treated the Shah.
Yes, Gustave Wolfers started in around 1880, he succeeded his father Guillaume (Wilhelm) Wolfers.
Regards, Jens.

Dear Avsar,
Could you help me with this Medjidie order?
The center is gilded silver so I presume it is a 4th class breast star. The cartouche on the reverse is from Darphane-i-Amire, however the crescent and star not red enameled and looks like one from the Osmanie order.
The original star was awarded to a Belgian dental surgeon in 1889 (date of the authorisation document. On this Belgian document is the 5th class mentioned). Administrational error?
Thanks a lot!
