Medal-set: 'KvK II. Klasse mit Schwertern' being a clearly maker- (ie. '51'-) marked- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based specimen as was produced by the maker: 'Eduard Görlach & Söhne' and that came with its period and confectioned ribbon

This is an attractive example of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class with swords) being a neatly (and clearly!) maker- (ie. '51'-) marked- and/or typical 'Buntmetall'-based specimen as was produced by the (unusually found!) maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Eduard Görlach & Söhne' as was based in the town of Gablonz a.d. N. and that came with its period, confectioned- and/or shortened ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') as issued and/or recently found. The ribbon - which is period-shortened and measures only 12 cms. in length - is truly bright-red-coloured and does show some minimal age and/or staining. The award has an attractive golden-bronze-coloured age-patina and was most certainly never cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. Simply an attractive - and clearly maker-marked! - example of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern'-set that was produced by the (unusually encountered!) maker: 'Eduard Görlach & Söhne' and that will be very hard to be upgraded!
