Very nice pair of scarce large size black Italian shoulder boards. Gorgeous Italian bullion work on the fasces. No damage found except for the rub on one of the axe blades. Top notch example of a hard to find set.

Terrific set of hangers for a WWII German army dagger. While this is not by any means a rare item, hangers generally saw solid use and had a very weakly applied silver finish. This example is a hard-to-find set in top notch condition. The brocade is crisp and clean and the velvet backing is immaculate with a lovely, smooth pile. The metal fittings still retain a large amount of the original silver frosting which is extremely rare...

Wonderful piece of jewelry that is collectible in many levels.It looks to be a watch fob the bottom of which is a Civil War style canteen. One side reads "U.S." and the other "Gettysburg". As the fabric is black I would assume it is mourning jewelry; If it were a proud veteran it would more likely have a splashy color scheme like red, white and blue. A likely scenario is a father grieving for his fallen son...

Ammo can with splinter camouflage pattern and paratrooper badge. I am most certain this is a post war paint job but it is well done and very cool. "Fallschimjager Rgt Nr 6 - Carentan". I am not much of an equipment guy but I think this can is for something big like a machine gun. 1940 dated and wafenampt. This is a really cool item for display.

This sword stand was made by a good friend of mine who is half carpenter and half artist. The model is the Go in okween wood. It holds five swords. 16 1/4'' L x 14 1/4''H x 11''W. While this sword stand is available he does take and even encourages custom requests. In addition to standard woods he likes to use exotic woods such as bubinga - an African hardwood, okween - another African hardwood, African mahogany, and rosewood (When available). Please inquire for custom requests.

This is one of those items that you have to like more the more you look at it. It is a silk hinomaru flag to which was added a gold fringe and a purple silk border. The quality is evident in that even the purple border has a pattern of hummingbirds over water that was too subtle to catch on a photograph. The dedication states that it was a gift from Nakao Kazuo to Ushijima Juzo with a phrase basically stating "Good luck in long fighting"...

Excellent police Enlisted belt. Leather has the size (100cm), unit (B.A.M. 338) and maker marks and date. Not only is it well marked but it is soft, supple and undamaged. Buckle itself is as good as you can hope to find with perfect detail. Maker marked JFS. Just a real nice belt.

These are interesting items. The thought was that if 1000 different people said a prayer or had a kind thought for a soldier, and on that thought or prayer put a stitch in the belt, it would give the wearer a little extra ":something". Actually a nice idea and a good way for a wife or family member to feel like they were helping their loved one...

This is a Third Reich era creamer pitcher from the Deutscher Hof hotel. This was purchased from a veteran's estate from a good friend who wrote up a nice presentation paper to add to it. This hotel was a favorite of Hitler's and was actually purchased by the party and used by high ranking officials when visiting Nuremberg. I have seen pieces from this hotel and this is typical of the pattern used there. On the side is "Der Deutche Hof". The ase is stamped "gebr...

Older ivory Chinese chess set. Despite being well carved, it looks like the king and "queen" are actually bone and from something else. The other 30 pieces are all ivory and show a nice grain on flat surfaces. There are a few nicks on some of the red pieces that could be easily touched up with a bit of paint. Some other small condition problems such as the decapitated knight (Could be glued back)...

This offering is a fine pair of menuki featuring a monkey riding a horse on one and the other looks to be a monkey chasing a horse, attempting to mount. There looks to be just a bit of smoothing in a tiny spot of one horse's leg. Other then that condition is terrific and detail is fine right down to the horses' abumi and even the braiding on the harnesses.

Honest, late war example. Shows its age but no damage. See pictures for condition. Not a minty example but a 100% real badge priced right.
