Gerben, Thank you very much. The more I look at the metal swivel and accompanied with your further discription, I suppose it could be an original.The leather itself certainly leads me towards that idea. So little has been documented on the Portugese lanyard that there is no one I have been able to find who knows anything about them other than a general discription.
Some other interesting questions I have for you...Is the swivel plated or do you think it is steel in the white? I assume it is steel as you say there is some rust. Can you tell if the stitching is cotton, synthetic or linen? Jerry Burney
