Knee jewellery

There is no image of the object under inv. no. 1383 in the photos taken at the RPM on the occasion of the magazine move, which is due to the fact that the knee jewellery was apparently re-inventoried with a provisional number, namely VoNr 733, on the occasion of the previous magazine move in the 1990s.
