€1,977.01
You are presented with a unique and extremely valuable collector's item – the gold Order of Saint Stanislaus. This historical decoration, whose roots date back to 1765, when King Stanislaus Augustus Poniatowski established it to honor the merits of citizens for the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. This order is not only a beautiful example of goldsmithing, but also a tangible link to the turbulent history of Poland.
The presented specimen is made of noble, high-grade gold with a total weight of 10.5 grams. Its form is a classic Maltese cross, whose arms end in characteristic balls. The central place is occupied by a delicate monogram "SS", meaning "Sanctus Stanislaus" (Saint Stanislaus), executed with precision worthy of a royal jeweler. The field of the cross is covered with a beautiful, intense red enamel, which perfectly contrasts with the shine of gold. An original ribbon in national colors – white with wide red stripes on the sides – belongs to the order.
The Order of Saint Stanislaus is a true gem in the collection of any lover of history, phaleristics, or Polish national heritage. Its collector value is enormous and depends on many factors, such as the class of the order, its state of preservation, and the specific historical period from which it originates (First Polish Republic, Duchy of Warsaw, or the period of partitions). This gold specimen, due to its material and historical rank, constitutes an investment of particular significance. We invite you to purchase this unique testimony of Polish history.
