Carol I Posted April 20, 2014 Author Posted April 20, 2014 Do you have the 'back story' for this extraordinary piece, Carol? I presume it was custom made for the Grand Master of the order. It is now in the Imperial Treasury Museum in Vienna.

utopis Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Very beautiful. Schatzkammer München, I assume? Edited January 7, 2015 by utopis
Carol I Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 Very beautiful. Schatzkammer München, I assume? Yes, together with many other beautiful items.
Elmar Lang Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 And here's my newest addition about the Austrian Golden Fleece:
Trooper_D Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 And here's my newest addition about the Austrian Golden Fleece: An exquisite piece, Elmar. Do you know who it was awarded to?
Trooper_D Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Yes, together with many other beautiful items. As Utopis said, some very beautiful items and interesting to see so many variations of the 'basic' theme (as illustrated in Elmar's posting, #20 above). Thanks for continuing to post them Edited January 8, 2015 by Trooper_D
Elmar Lang Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Hello, thank you for the kind words and please excuse me for replying this late. I don't know who was the original owner of my Goldenes Vliesz at the moment, but I think that with some patience I will eventually know that. In any case, although being the piece "anonymous" until now, I can say that I'm very happy with it. Best wishes, E.L. Edited January 19, 2015 by Elmar Lang
Elmar Lang Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Is this piece exposed at the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna?I think that the uniform is the emperor's one, because of the "Kriegsmedaille 1873" worn with the reverse as the visible side.Best wishes,Enzo
