Strange vase, 925 +? mark

Post by noisette »

Hi All

My first post on this forum. I spent an hour+++ cleaning up this vase today, and I am looking to identify the makers mark, I have looked through lots of marks without success. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hazel

Hi,
Nice modern piece but no idea who made it.
Your images are embedded, better chance to get a response.

Thanks for embedding the pictures, I'm not sure why it didn't work when I did it!

It was nearly black when I bought it but I could just make out the 925 on the foot so I took a punt. It took me more than an hour to clean it up but what a transformation. It stands 8 3/4" high and weighs 3lb 2oz, I don't know if it is all silver or whether it is made over an internal liner that is metal.

Bumpety bump. Pictures still extant in links. Standard appears to read "92.5" rather than ".925"??
