    Overall the item measures 18mm x 18mm of undetermined metal. The shaft is missing but the hinge and clasp are intact. The arms of the pin are black enameled with the centerpiece a golden five-star in which is set a four-clasped, multifaceted red glass.
    The item came into family shortly after 1945-47. I have some information graciously provided by other experts in the field, but nothing conclusive, if there ever could be.

      The swastika has been around long before as a lucky symbol before the German's made it evil. Very interesting !

      Symbolism. I wonder how the peace symbol will evolve?
