FLATWARE UNKNOWN HALLMARK

Post by lufox »

I really need help from experts in silverware. My husband's great grandfather bought this flatware around the end of the XIX to the beginning of the XX century probably while he was living in Europe. I have looked up in lots of places but the best resemblance I could find was to the Moscow City Mark posted by your online encyclopedia of Silver Marks.
I would be very grateful for any help in solving this mystery.

Hello, incompletely struck mark of Koch and Bergfeld, Bremen, used on plated items. It is actually a K and a B, joined back to back. The pattern is one of several very popular floral "lily" patterns designed by Hugo Leven for said company around 1900-1902. Regards, Bahner
