Object history | The enamelled figure 3 on the head of the ring relates to the pendant badge 451-1873, the design of which also incorporates a 3, as well as an anchor and a cluster of forget-me-nots, which in turn relates it to the badge 9081-1863. All three pieces were probably German court decorations. |
