A unique and poignant historical artifact, being a material testament to the clash of two totalitarian war machines. Here are original buckles from the Third Reich period, most likely captured as a trophy by a Red Army soldier, who then in a characteristic, makeshift manner mounted a red star onto them – the symbol of his victory. This gesture gives the objects a deeply symbolic, almost archaeological value, telling a story of conflict, spoils, and downfall. The set consists of two buckles:

• Wehrmacht buckle – standard buckle of the Third Reich land forces with the characteristic eagle holding a swastika and the inscription "GOTT MIT UNS".
• NSDAP buckle – belonging to members of the Nazi party, with an eagle and swastika in a wreath.

Both bear traces of use and marks from the mounting of a five-pointed Soviet star, which constitutes an extremely rare and evocative combination. Collector's value: These items go beyond ordinary militaria. They are "spoken" relics that constitute tangible evidence of the post-war fate of captured equipment and the act of symbolic "takeover" or desecration of enemy symbolism. This is an object of immense expressive power for collectors specializing in the history of World War II, propaganda, the psychology of war, and the material traces of conflict. The items are offered as a historical testimony. The "Lapidarium" shop presents them exclusively for educational and collecting purposes, strongly condemning all totalitarianisms and hate ideologies of which they are a painful symbol.
