Wow fantastic knowledge.
Thank you.

Hi all Forgive me if this is wrong category. I have no clue about this one. I bought this nice fruit knife recently thinking it was posibly Estonian silver after seeing the first mark. The seller thought Birmingham but i knew that wasn’t right even with the anchor. It has only been on closer inspect...

Hi everyone I recently acquired a lovely vesta case or box shaped like a cello or similar. I have no idea if these marks are silver or silver plate marks. The only mark that I think I recognise is the swan which possibly could be a French export mark. The other marks are a complete mystery. One look...

Thank you both. That’s amazing knowledge, I will update my records with that info.
I started looked through but it was just a guess what the first letters might be.

Hi everyone I am hoping you can help me again. I have a lovely new pendant and I can only see the end of the hallmark. Does anyone recognise the maker by any chance? I think it looks like FD LD which probably means Limited. As always I am grateful for any help Thanks you https://i.imgur.com/TeHd4ZA....

Hi everyone I have just got this lovely little Vesta / matchbox with a hinged lid. It isn’t silver but could it possibly be silverplated or German silver. It has marks in the lid that don’t look like anything I have ever seen and wondered if anyone may have seen them before? The first could be an ar...

Thank you I will have a look at that. it is certainly a mystery

Hi everyone I have just acquired a new piece of silver which I think is a letter opener. It has a full set of normal hallmarks for C J Vander of Sheffield. There is no mystery with those but then it looks like a part of another set on the reverse side. It has the Sheffield rose and sterling lion but...

Hi all Haven’t posted for a while but could do with your help again. I recently bought this pendant and it said Austro-Hungarian on the ticket. On closer inspection I can see what looks like a french crab mark. Could it be French? There are 2 other marks I don’t know and would appreciate your expert...

Wow you guys are so great. I have so much to learn and I do it from your knowledge
Thanks again and keep on doing what you do because you have created such a valuable resource with this forum.

Hi everyone I am hoping you can help me with something that I bought recently I got a glance at the hallmarks and thought they may be British (I could only make out the lion) but after getting it And giving it a clean I realise they are nothing like English hallmarks Could they be Hanau pseudo hallm...

That’s great info many thanks

Hi all As you are talking about the swan again I wondered if you could help with this. I have a modern ring that has the artist /make name scratched on the back (Gorig or Gong?) but I also noticed it has on the band the owl and the swan. The ring is silver with a bit of gold.They are small but I am ...

Hi everyone I have recently bought a little pill pot and when I say little, well I mean very little. Not even sure what you would keep in it to tell the truth. It is only just bigger than a pill. But the hallmarks interested me and I have had a look but I can’t find any similar online. I would be gr...

Thanks everyone. That’s been a great help an I now have a lovely piece of Spanish Silver with a Madonna on it.
You guys are so good.

Thanks again Trev, excellent knowledge

Excellent thanks Trev. That will make this my first piece of Spanish Silver

Hi all I hope you are all keeping ok. I am getting chance to go through some jewellery and the pieces I know nothing about It’s a cameo or woman’s face (I think a woman) on one side and a building on the other It has hallmarks I cant recognise and wonder if anyone had any information about where it ...

Yes that makes sense. I never thought of that.
Many thanks for the confirmation.
