joe campbell Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 hard to say whether or not this is wartime manufacture,although one would think with the double posts that itis for placement on a uniform.i would suspect the label is from the jeweler whoprepared the cross and rigged up the case.you have a MOST HANDSOME piece there, onethat i would have in my collection proudly. this variety in the imperial era awards is what ifind so enchanting. the case is at least asinteresting as the cross.well done!joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Gordon Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 AndyI would guess the case is a TR era piece and coverted for this cross. Perhaps a '30s piece?Very nice though!Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
