Amber necklace with lock

This object presumably came from the property of Clara Marx and was added to the collection of the ‘Haus der Heimat - Sauerländisches Friedrich Harkort Museum’ through a purchase during the Nazi dictatorship. However, she did not receive the money for it, as it was allegedly given directly to the tax office due to overdue ‘Jewish property taxes’.

Parts of the collection - such as this object - became the property of the Hagen City Museum in the post-war period.
