Army Artillery Swallowtail, Pole Topper & Streamers

Standarte für Artillerieeinheiten. This is an exquisitely crafted and absolutely gorgeous work of art. The body of the flag is made from fine silk, in the beautiful and eye-catching red color of the Artillery branch. It’s double sided, with both sides featuring a large Iron Cross of black silk and wire bullion, on which is superimposed a large and absolutely stunning German national eagle and swastika emblem, surrounded by a finely worked wire bullion wreath. The level of detail in the hand stitched embroidered thread and bullion is incredible. Each corner of the flag, to both sides, is adorned by a stitched swastika emblem, in black and silver wire. This Regimental Standarte retains bright original colors, with only minor age toning. The overall condition remains excellent. The flag was carefully removed from a pole, leaving very small holes in the silk on the hoist end. The original fringe along the edges is complete. This Standarte is complete with its original streamers and pole topper. The pole toper is constructed out of cast aluminum. It displays an Army eagle clutching a swastika in its talons on an ornate spade-shaped frame. There are two holes to either side of the coupling near the base to allow it to be attached to the flag pole. The base is marked “Bildgiesserei Kraas Berlin 42”. The very bottom edge of the eagle is cracked below the two wing tips and swastika, its hardly noticeable. The streamers are adorned with finely struck Army eagle emblems, with a silver finish, and the dates “16, März 1935” and “16. März 1936.” The tassels themselves are made of silver, red and black bullion and are complete with their original tassels. They are in great condition with only minor wear and a few frays. This is an extremely rare and desirable item that could be the centerpiece of a very advanced collection. The best set I've seen or owned...
