Re: Brooch masks

Hi, I could not find a Dutch or Belgian match. Mark D N with a twig in de middle, in an oval-shaped shield.
Can you clean the 2nd mark and try to make a clear enhanced image of this mark?

Re: Enameled box mark,Russia or Armenian?

Kyrgyztan, used a 3rd silver standard of 916. The box has no hallmark, I assume the mark to be a maker's mark.

Re: Unknown Belgium mark

It seems to me to be the maker's mark of Louis Frédéric Guillaume Wolfers, a W above a boar's head . He was born in Minden, Germany, as the son of Philippe Wolff on December 31, 1820, and brother of Philippe Wolff, later married to Henriette Ruthenburg, he died in St.-Josse. Active in Brussels 1852-...

Re: 18th Century Unicorn Snuffbox?

Considering the style and the location of the marks, and the absence of more hallmarks, definitively not Dutch (guild) silver. I suspect it might be German, early Hanau or Austria Hungary. Best to say continental (early) 19th century, unknown maker's mark. Herewith a British same theme Orpheus playi...

Re: Silver bag bracket Dutch, Maker?

Your silver bag bracket. The year letter G is for 1916, you should expect to find an office mark/Minerva head, with the regional assay office letter C voor The Hague. Like you write at your own selling website; I think I recognize WE. This could stand for W. Edeling from Schoonhoven, active from 189...
