Silver Plate
Silver plate, antique nurse belt buckle with blue swastikas on it?
My mum has a silver plate antique nurses buckle. It is kind of filigree design with a light blue swastika on each half. She got it from her sister who is a nurse. She was given it years ago by an old matron, who said it was worn by jewish nurses. If anyone knows anything about this kind of thing, or a good site online that I would be able to find anything about this, please let me know. Thank you!
I can not find anything (on a brief research) regarding its use within Judaism, though I know that it was used in both Buddhism and Hinduism. Wikipedia have a good article concerning the symbol itself. Whether or not Jewish nurses were forced to wear the symbol during Nazi periods in Europe, I do not know. However, if you are really determined to find the origin and provenance of the piece you could contact the Holocaust Museum in America (google it) or the Imperial War Museum in London.
Finally, you could of course try one of these ‘what is it, and how much is it worth’ programmes on telly (like Antiques Roadshow) but I am sure you will get help from a curator of a museum or academic. You may also be asked to donate the item for an exhibition, which may or may not offer payment.
Facinating question and artifact – best of luck.
