Hi, I haven't been around in a long time. I've been busy with my reference and sales sites. See more below. I never had any intentions of going so far as to open a sales site over and beyond my original plans for my http://www.karlgoetz.com museum site but I did, and below is the information and lin...

For any of you with interest in WWI German satirical medals, here is the link to my recently completed Satirical Medal Gallery Home As I state in the Subpage, these listings are not meant to be static but rather to grow with new information as it becomes available.

From a German Family collection begun before 1900, they had coins from the second half of the 19th c., this, and ten other Goetz pieces were acquired. All material is as original as the day it was placed into the collection with the exception of a lovely added "skin" to the pieces from their age. I ...

If you are interested in seeing the rest of the Gies WWI collection then take a look here.http://www.crestviewcable.com/~archy2/gies/index.html

I have been very fortunate to pick up three additional Gies WWI art medals over the past six weeks. This is unheard of regarding Gies material and especially the early stuff. I think the economy is mostly responsible for these appearing since the sellers were pretty bummed out that something had to ...

I recently purchased about 400 drawings/paintings that Karl Goetz created in 1899-1904 while in Paris. At this time he was a free-lance jewelry designer. Here are a couple of the designs he made for a ring and brooches. None of these drawings/paintings have ever been seen before and are fresh to the...

Yes, 1899-1904

I know, many will thing this is OT but I'd beg to differ. During Goetz's early period and apprenticeship he was learning the ropes of metal properties and manipulation through engraving, casting, repousse', etc., While doing so in Paris he became known by several jewelry makers as a wonderful design...

This is only 1/5 of the collection. Goetz would create the models, moulds and then cast a master model or two. He would then send the master to other medal foundry's that cast pieces for him. They would create moulds from the master, then cast, clean, and chase the new pieces before they were return...
