This exceptional jeweler-made / dress chain combines the Iron Cross 1914 (WWI IC) with the Repetition Clasp 1939 in a high-quality miniature version for wear with a tailcoat or tuxedo. Such dress chains were worn by German officers and recipients of both Iron Crosses at festive occasions, banquets, and galas – an elegant testament to the awards culture of the German Empire. The combination of the 1914 IC and the 1939 Repetition Clasp symbolizes the double distinction of a soldier who had earned the Iron Cross in both World Wars.
Dress chains with the Iron Cross and Repetition Clasp are a particularly rare and sought-after collecting area among militaria collectors and award experts – they combine military award history with the elegant festive culture of the German Empire. Please refer to the scans for a detailed impression of the condition and the jeweler's work.
