Re: Help needed in identifying Gold and Semi precious stones WWII German pendant?
I would guess it was civillian jewelry and not Third Reich.

It could also be pre-war... Swastikas were very in vogue back then. Perhaps even Jainist, Hindu, Buddhist or Native American related.

It was part of a collection of bring-backs from the estate of the WWII serviceman who's property it was. The Luger was certainly German as well as the other WWII German items- this piece
was just unknown to me.
I'll post in the other thread- thank you.

Definitely a civilian item/locket. It does not look like a very expensive
piece either - not solid gold in any case.........

A gift to a lady during that period of time???? it looks like a charm form a charm braclet????
It is my best guess.

Yes, but what reason is there for thinking its Third Reich period at all? As GIZMO8Z rightly says, swastikas appear on all sorts of items before the Nazi period, and from many countries. This could be a good luck charm which is neither German nor of the Nazi period.

Your guess is as good as mine, although I would guess it was a gift during the period to a sweetheart etc, especially if found with other period artifacts.
