Adolf Hitler Floral & Ribbon Pattern Formal Napkin from The Berghof
A fabulous Adolf Hitler Formal napkin used for the most formal of occasions when Hitler held VIP dinners and parties, most especially at his mountain retreat in Obersalzberg, The Berghof.
The absolutely beautiful off-white coloured linen napkin has a lovely silky feel and displays a wonderful sheen effect which is brought to prominence by the interwoven patterns. The beautiful flowing ribbon and floral design cover the entire napkin, the ribbon travels around all sides set in from the edge by about 8cm, two flowers & foliage intersect the ribbon on each edge then four flowers are off-set inside the outer pattern, the design can be seen on the napkin reverse. A large stitched Fuehrer Adler (the Leader’s Eagle) clutching a wreathed Swastika which is flanked by Hitler’s initials ‘A’ & ‘H’ is situated inside the ribbon pattern to the lower right side (or left side depending on which way it is being held!).
The design for the AH Formal (especially the Fuehrer Adler) tableware/silverware is attributed to Adolf Hitler himself adding yet another level of desirable collectability to these pieces!
