Hello, this is really a box sold by Kühn (by the way it is >Gebrüder Kühn<, founded in 1860). The pic: http://img1.putfile.com/thumb/2/4411393063.jpg is taken from an undated trade catalogue of Kühn’s (which I date around 1970, give or take a few). The handle is a little different, though. The c...

So it reacts differently than real brass. The less nickel German silver contains, the more its colour is like gold. So this is ...

Hello, as Roth is established as the maker, I would like to make a wild guess. First thought that came to mind when I saw the bust was: that looks like German poet Friedrich Schiller. Exactly his profile and his hairdo. 1905 was the 100th anniversary of his death and it was widely celebrated in Germ...

Hello, it is not possible to exactly ascribe this to a certain maker, as the mark is incomplete. One would have to clearly see the sign between the two letters. The Viennese list of gold- and silversmiths has no match for “J A” with this kind of frame, so I guess it is “J H“. Might be either J. Hobu...

Hello and congrats, stunning pieces ! Stylistically this seems to have been influenced by designs of the Wiener Werkstätten around 1922/28. One can see similiar shapes in designs by Peche and Hoffmann. The mark (badly struck) is that of Theodor Müller from Weimar. Founded in 1863 by goldsmith and ...
