[QUOTE="IvaPan, post: 9489358, member: 78949"]Thank you, Any! I like it very much, too. It was very dirty, not it looks better after some cleaning. German is very plausible if before 1944 as we were allies and well-off Bulgarians travelled there for business and for leisure. After 1944 there was specialization within Comecon and East Germany was not producing much jewelry, it was assigned to Czechs, and thus most jewelry from that period here was Czech and unmarked. No one bothered to mark costume jewelry, trademarks were not something cherished or looked after.[/QUOTE]
