landsknechte Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I know the ribbon in first place is something Weimar-era from W?rttemberg, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Does anyone remember what that ribbon represents, and possibly have a picture of the decoration?Thanks,--Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 (edited) Hi Chris,You seem right about W?rttemberg.I think, but i'm not sure, it is the ribbon of the Order of the W?rttemberg Crown (Orden der W?rttembergische Krone).But, it is not Weimar republic era...Ch.

Christophe Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 (edited) If this guess is right, here is a pic of the Order of the W?rttemberg Crown (Orden der W?rttembergische Krone), Knights's Cross with Lions (Ritterkreuz mit L?wen).Ch.

HeikoGrusdat Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Christophe, your order is too high for this little vet bar... I think here is the right one, cross from the W?rttemberg Vet`s organization - really nice Heiko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landsknechte Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 (edited) Heiko's nailed it... The Crown Order only has two black stripes, not four. Edited September 5, 2005 by landsknechte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Hi Chris,I would agree with Heiko. Although the colors are right for a number of official W?rttemberg decorations, I am afraid that the combination of black stripes does not match up with any of them. A nice little ribbon bar nevertheless.Best wishes,Wild Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landsknechte Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 I already have this bar, with what may just be a variant of that ribbon. Haven't found anything else even vaguely close: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 You should be careful buying from Christian, he has had several batches of bad ribbon bars lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they've got very authentic looking wear (such as this one), I generally don't even bother. The pretty mint bars - forget it.Thanks,--Chris Edited September 7, 2005 by landsknechte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
