larsb001 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Indeed it is . Perhaps you could also be interested in one for 20 high sea voyages? Edited August 10, 2014 by larsb001
JapanX Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 I`ve got a feeling you are seriously collect minis Nice one!
larsb001 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Have a few Now I'd like to get your opinion on this one, I've had it for many years and it is the only non christian one I have. Somehow I'm not so keen on the center, but on the other hand it doesn't seem to have been messed with in any way, further it doesn't resemble the known Hungarian fakes and I got it from a source where I would not expect to get a fake, meaning an antique dealer who hasn't anything else into O&D, he apparently got it from a private estate. Could I have your opinion, have you seen any similar?
JapanX Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 Fascinating piece! Could I have your opinion, have you seen any similar? Never! By these photos cross looks pretty convincing
JapanX Posted August 11, 2014 Author Posted August 11, 2014 Nice example of wearing chain with three miniatures Looks like Stas + Anna + For Zeal
JapanX Posted August 12, 2014 Author Posted August 12, 2014 Stas (close relative of pieces from posts #33 and #39 )
Peter J Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 To all posters in this thread, thanks for sharing these beautiful minis Trying to compete here is no option, these two are my only contribution. A 2nd opinion on the Anna would be greatly appreciated.
larsb001 Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Hi Peter. Miniatures is allways a difficult issue. I don't see it as a recent production, but it resembles a specific type sometimes seen in British group. Although the following photos is not the best quality (it's not a group I have) I would say that your St Anne is quite similar to the St Anne in this group is you look at the way the Saint is painted, the ring around the center medaillion and the dirty looking black enamel. As the group bears a Spink label it could be logic to assume that this could be a Spink production. Just my thoughts, Lars Edited August 13, 2014 by larsb001
