Additional Information

The jewels and luxury objects produced during the 2nd world war years are testimonies of an Europe in deep effort.
For its price and, in several cases, by force of law the use of precious metals and gemstones was cut to the minimum in superfluous goods.
The gold and silver examples remaining today are highly sought after and cherished by the collectors.
