Portuguese Silver Box?

I tried looking through the Portuguese silver marks page, but was having trouble matching. Anyone know the maker, date, company, and fineness? Thanks for any help.

Re: Soviet silver mark on Enameled Cups and Saucers

In the blog, the item that had the same Leningrad mark was made of 925 instead of 916. The author claimed that this was possibly indicative of export as sterling was more common in the USA and in the UK. A second piece that was pictured, also enamel over silver, did have Swedish import marks. The au...

Soviet silver mark on Enameled Cups and Saucers

I have been having a hard time finding marks like this one on any of the silver ID websites. Is this 916/1000 silver. Also does anyone recognize the makers mark?

Ring marked 14ct 925 with S / Swirl mark

This ring is very curious to me. Does Great Britain or European makers use CT for gold instead of K or KT. Anyone recognize the mark? The stone looks clear, blue, and iridescent all at once. I was thinking maybe it was a type of moonstone. Any help is appreciated. Thanks https://i.imgur.com/XtNAs8p....

Help with Taxco jewelry mark

I am have seen a lot of Taxco marks but never this one. Is that a generic silver mark sort of like the eagle/bell mark or is this a makers mark. It definitely looks like some kind of figural/pictorial mark. It is also signed with a plain 925 silver mark in another area Any ideas? Thanks for the help...

Help with antique German mark

I was thinking this mark looked similar to some that I have seen for Ludwig Neresheimer, but I am not sure. Any ideas? Is the second mark an Augsburg mark? Does this piece have a name? Is it a pie server, or cake server. Thanks for the help. https://i.imgur.com/ixHnZXe.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZRFh4H...

Silver Shell Nut Dish

I am not positive that this is British, but I thought it resembled some of the British marks I have seen. If this is in the wrong forum I apologize. It looks like the letters are a k or r in a circle, followed by an H in a shield, followed by a lion in a rectangle. Does anyone know the maker of this...

Help with Swedish jewelry mark

It looks like these modernist shape earrings are possibly from Stockholm Sweden. The G9 looks to be the date code from 1957, but I am at a loss for the name of the maker. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for the help

Silver Trinket Box

I am not sure if this is French. When I first saw it I thought it was a Chinese export, but I couldn't find the mark anywhere. In my opinion it most closely resembles French marks. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Chinese export bowl?

After doing a little research I now think this is Russian. I am going to have to search for the maker a little bit, but if a mod can move this to the correct forum that would be great. Thanks

Chinese export bowl?

I am not sure if this is definitively Chinese, or silver for that matter. Someone else thought it might be pewter. I figured the two letters were HK possibly meaning Honk Kong, although they may be NK or WK. It's hand made and definitely feels and looks old. Is this Chinese or something else? Anyway...

Sterling Tea Strainer w/ Pictorial Mark

I believe this is probably American. It was nested inside of a Birks sterling cup. The Birks mark I believe is from Canada so I guess it could be from Canada. Anyone recognize this mark?

Napkin rings mark 800 k&k

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I couldn't find a mark like it and thought the German marks were the closest fit, but honestly it may be some other country. It is marked 800, a crown looking object, and either K&K, KSK, or K (unknown character) K. https://i.imgur.com/PaGoitQ.jpg https://i.i...
