Venezuela, Republic, Order of the Liberator, Grand Cordon's set of Insignia by N.S. Meyer, New York, comprising sash Badge, gilt and enamel, 50mm x 45mm, on full sash riband; breast Star, silver-gilt, gilt and enamel, 81mm x 75mm, sold together with miniature breast Badge, boutonniere and riband bar, all nearly extremely fine, in case of issue. This was likely awarded in the years following the Second World War.
The Manufacturer: Insignia produced by N.S. Meyer, New York is rarer and highly sought after by collectors of South American militaria, as a vast majority of these state orders were manufactured locally within Venezuela. Because the vast majority of Venezuelan orders were made by local South American jewelers or European firms, an American-made N.S. Meyer variant is a specific niche that collectors actively hunt for.
