Thank you for responding so quickly, Trev. I have a 3 inch silver-entwined real scarab pendant with the oak leaf/acorn mark of V.C. Dub.

I am finding little research about this Austrian Family. Just hoping some experts out there can share what they may know, or refer me to a book resource, or website to learn more.

This forum will not allow me to post a photo, maybe there is a trick to that too? I am not a collector, buyer or seller, just interested
to know more about this very unusual piece of jewelry that I found in an old family shop in Berchtesgaden Germany 2000.

Gratefully. Lillie
