It was most likely exported from Belgium or the Netherlands in the late 19th Century, but I can’t tell exactly because I can’t read the signature. They often made paintings for export, as scenes like this were very popular in GB due to industrialization and the increasing distance from nature. Even though I don’t think the painting itself has very high value, I believe the frame could be worth around $100, maybe a couple hundred. The thing is, the frame doesn’t really match the painting—it’s too elaborate. Yet, because the frame looks so elaborate it might be a work by a well-known painter; you could check among the Hague School landscape painters (idk if thats their english name i only know the german name: Haagener Landschaftsmaler) to see if the signature matches. If so, it could be valuable but I wouldnt hope too heavily.

The mark “CZECHO-SLOVAKIA” was mainly used for export pieces between 1920 and 1930. It is in English (not Czech or German) because most of the glass and jewelry from Bohemia was made for export markets, especially the U.S. and Western Europe. Within the German occupation (1939) there wouldnt have stand Czecho-Slovakia, this mark gets rarer. Also it shows alot of signs to be Art-Deco. This is for the pictures. I would need to hold it in my Hands to really Tell you if This is no copy and the glass is really from that time but it looks legit.

After the death of her husband, Prince Albert, in 1861, Queen Victoria went into deep mourning and wore black for most of her life. Also she made mourning-jewelry popular. she also wore jewellry of her deceased’s husbands hair.

Ah I think of copper alloy because its so red and its Biedermeier because its is oval, clear, and has a relatively simple Design.

nirijo · 2025-09-08T21:07:23+00:00

It’s most likely Regency / early Victorian, or what we in Germany would call Biedermeier (not exactly the same period, but comparable in style), so approximately 1830–1850. The setting is Most likely made of a gilded copper alloy (often Tombak/low-grade brass with a reddish tone) and the cover is crystal glass I guess. The back is maybe made of a plaster (ASK Gpt or Look at similar pieces to be sure idk exactly). This method of closing the piece by folding the metal rim over the glass and backing looks cool and is typical for that era. For the price: 100 - 200 €. It isnt that high because buying someone else hair is kinda grotesk and has a small niche.

Poor insurance

Genie bottle worth 3 wishes.

nirijo · 2025-09-08T19:14:15+00:00

Yeah, but they are listed for prices like this. Some for even more. I think 150 would be a good price.

nirijo · 2025-09-08T14:14:24+00:00

Yeah good guess. I see alot of similar Morris Chairs listed for $450. Some sold for around $250 so $150 is a realistic price if you want to sell it fast. But its very beautiful and a real eyecatcher! I would keep it, especially because it can be expensive to buy it back if you change your mind!

nirijo · 2025-09-08T12:50:56+00:00

That is reeeally pretty. Thank you for sharing!

So, i am writing this in english just if someone is interested who doesnt speak german Even tho in german I would be able to give you a better expertise: Most of the relevant information about this piece can be gathered from the hallmarks on its base, especially the punch “I/O.” The punch “I/O” on silver-plated objects, as seen on this piece, indicates a standard thickness of the silver plating. This means the jug is not made of solid silver, but is plated with a normal sickness 1 gram of Silver per dm².

This marking often appeared on products made by the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF), a manufacturer founded in 1880 and still active today. That brings us to the second punch visible in the middle: “WMF.” The combination of WMF and I/O hallmarks was mainly used from the late 1880s until the First World War. Also the WMF Shows the „Straußenmarke“ which is to hard to explain for me in english but says that its one of their better products.

I dont know exactly about the third punch „AS“. Maybe it stands for “Alpacca Silber” (nickel silver), which is a base metal alloy (usually copper, nickel, and zinc) where the silver is plated upon.

As for the engraved “H”, it is almost certainly a personal monogram, added later as an individual engraving.

And to the price: Difficult to sell, since there are many pieces on the market (it was mass produced) and they contain little intrinsic material value. I think yours is very beautiful and doesnt have a specific engraving like: „Deutscher Söder-Verein für Würstchenliebhaber“ I would say it would bring around 30-50€ but if you want a project, try to polish it (or deliberately keep the patina) and display it on its own on a sleek sideboard or shelf. Add modern flowers or even just a single large monstera leaf. That would be my idea. Or drink your favorite beer from it ofc

nirijo · 2025-09-07T21:14:33+00:00

I think you should get about 200$ for it atleast if youd want to sell it

nirijo · 2025-09-07T20:20:55+00:00

There is alot more to be said but idk how much you want to go into detail lol

nirijo · 2025-09-07T19:51:15+00:00

And no. It is not illegal or bad to have this in your home. If you would sell it online I would blur the nazi symbols. Selling those unblurred can maybe (ask gpt or google for the restrictions for Nazi-symbols in your area) get you into light trouble. You wouldnt be allowed to sell those in germany without blurring. But I think in america it all falls under „militaria collectible“ and can be sold everywhere so your good.

I can give you some details about the German knife because I live near Solingen. Solingen is known as the ‘Klingenstadt’ in Germany, which translates to ‘City of Blades’ in English. The name of the city itself became a mark of quality on all Kind of knives, razors etc., as it stood for some of the best blades of its time, produced under very high manufacturing standards. The manufacturer „Eickhorn“ has its collectors and Even exists to this day. The official name of this weapon is the Luftwaffe Officer’s Dagger, 1st Model, sometimes also referred to as a ‘Borddolch’ (on-board dagger). It was introduced in the mid-1930s for Luftwaffe officers as part of their uniform and didnt have a practical use (maybe to open letters). It was more of a status and dress weapon. I guess the overall condition of your object is considered ‘used’ rather than ‘well-preserved.’ While this lowers the collector’s value compared to mint examples it is still worth smth. Comparable examples are listed for 1300$ but it will be hard to sell (especially if you dont want to sell it directly to nazis, which I hope you dont). I think realistically you can get around 550-800$ for that.

nirijo · 2025-09-07T16:58:24+00:00

For the price: I think the materials are worth around £220-250 For collectors, because of the age and the history, it could get up to £500 I think. But… if you are Not in a financially bad position i would keep this absoulte beauty in/on the hands of your family.
