Turkey TWM by Factory Petz & Lorenz, Unterreichenbach Wurttemberg

[demir]

I would like to add another company dealing with strawberry seed, snail and Easter-egg design TWM (source: Konstantin).

Factory Petz & Lorenz, Unterreichenbach Wurttemberg . (Producer and&or seller ?)

Please compare the toughra with Steinhauer and Lück, and Ernst Schneider, Ludenscheid.

The toughra has a fuller body and the fringes are curved more towards the pseudonym

and tughs are shorter and ball tipped finials are smaller.

Regards

Demir

Hi Demir,

according to the bag they are a producer.

I am betting the firm that stamped the metal is not the same firm that does the enamle work? They are two seperate jobs, as is making the bag.

Hello Chris,

Yes according to their catalogue they are a "Fabrik" (Factory).

Can you explain what you mean by saying;

I would like to add my contribution, made by Godet & Sohn, with an original piece of ribbon. The medal comes with an original case and a sticker on the underside from the company. Unfortunately at some stage the enamel was damaged and crudely repaired. The hinge pin is hallmarked Godet

Hi,

I just wonder if a firm that specialises in metal work would bother to do its own enamel work, or outsource it. It is probably financially more viable to have someone else do that, same way as someone else makes the bags.

I can't say for sure, but if they only made a handful of awards with enamel, it would not pay to specially employ a person and the tools needed on site.

Enamel strikes me as more a jewellers work.
