A wheel ... lock for comments
According to some specialist, this is an example made in Braunschweig, around 1570-1590.
Similar to those from Nuremberg and Dresden, however with details, or lack of them, that make it be correctly identified. (If any of you guys is interested, i can transcribe/translate all those differentiation details). Residual traces of gold may be discerned in the engraving. Such a pity that it came without the safety catch spring, which took me quite a while to look for a local arrangement. . |
