Attractive, WH (KM o. Heeres) bright-golden-toned, light-weight- (ie. aluminium-) based breast-eagle ('Brustadler') as was specifically intended for usage on the white-coloured, naval summer-tunics (ie. 'WH-KM Sommerblusen')

This an attractive - just moderately used and actually not that easily encountered! - WH (Kriegsmarine o. Heeres) bright-golden-toned- (ie. truly 'frosted'!) and/or metal- (ie. light-weight- and/or aluminium-) based breast-eagle (ie. 'Brustadler für Sommerrock der Kriegsmarine') as was specifically intended for usage on the white-coloured, naval-type summer tunics and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The very detailed piece that shows a clear makers'-designation (ie. logo ie. 'Raute' with an 'M'-character inside it: as such it was presumably produced by the 'Maedicke'-company) on its back is a 'standard-pattern'-example that has a very nice, truly 'frosted' and/or detailed appearance. It shows no real damage whatsoever: truly most of its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or polished sides) are still nicely preserved and/or present (as can be seen on the pictures). The eagle just shows some minimal age ie. staining as to be expected. The piece comes mounted onto its original (and naturally functional) pin and also retains its (often missing!) 'third attachment-pin' (shaped like a clip as can be seen on the pictures). These attractive tunic-eagles can easily be considered 'fairly scarce'. It should be noted that this pattern breast-eagle was seen on the various naval summer-tunics but could eventually also be used for a WH (Heeres) general-officers'-summer-tunic (there was no difference between the metal breast-eagles used for these two branches). Simply an attractive WH (Kriegsmarine) breast-eagle: it will be very difficult to upgrade this example!
