Re: Potential silverplate: B, Fleur-de-lis, G, unknown image
Thanks for your image. I can add a clarification: the first letter of the assayer's mark is not a B but a Z interwined with a P (Zuan Piero) Below is a well-struck example. https://i.postimg.cc/dQ99bDxB/zuanpiero.jpg As I said it is easy to find fakes, below is an example, unfortunately of one of my...

Re: Potential silverplate: B, Fleur-de-lis, G, unknown image

Re: A few information on some Italian pseudo-marks
VENICE 2 A few days ago, by chance, a bucket exactly like the one discussed above appeared at an online auction house. https://i.postimg.cc/CKNxFBnM/secchielloz-01b.jpg This time, however, instead of having Mr. ZG’s marks, it was stamped with marks of the Italian Republic, 30 PD : the Zaramella Com...

Re: Italian Serving Tray
This tray does not have official Italian marks from the 20th or 21st century and this raises some doubts. It seems unlikely that this object is prior to 1935 and furthermore, judging from the photo, it appears to be very thin in thickness. If it were made of 925/1000 silver I imagine it would be def...

Re: Can anyone help identify the manufacturer and years of production?
The name Farnese in Italian has no accent. The grave accent on the first e seems to indicate a French pronunciation.

Re: A few information on some Italian pseudo-marks
