Thank you! I have found several examples of Indian silverware and my sugar bowl might be from the Bhuj region ca 1870. Here is one of the examples similar to mine:

Sugar bowl? Persian?

Looking forward to hear your ideas. As there are no marks that I can show I wonder what is the origin of this piece (sugar bowl)? Maybe Persian?

Re: Silver mirror, unknown origin and maker

Thank you for your reply. I have seen now more examples of these mirrors. These are made as a part of the Bride's trousseau collected by the Bride for her Wedding Day. A common "gift" in Turkey.

Silver mirror, unknown origin and maker

Good morning!

I have a wall mirror with some interesting design on the back. Here are the pictures of it including the mark - probably AVCI. I suspect it might be Turkey? Please advise.

Continental Europe Marks?

My guess on these two marks is continental Europe. Maybe someone have seen such marks before and can help me further. Thank you in advance!

Re: Silver comb - mark - China, Japan?

Thank you! This means it is a replica as the base metal is copper.
