:) Thank you!

Oh? Was my gratitude too quick?

Is GBEC the maker?

Fantastic! Thank you very much!

Any idea?

Unfortunately the makers mark is quite worn. Can you identify it anyway? I read it as "ETE". The 1. and 3. letter could also be "P", the 2. could also be a "F"... Maybe you see more. https://i.imgur.com/6O26L9U.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wWBaVrt.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9P7...

:) Wow, that was quick! Thank you!

I think its something way more uselesse - an umbilical clamp (Nabelklemme).

There are only the "N" and "13", no makers mark.

Gebrüder Gutgesell (Hanau) also used the N.

What do you think? Is it more likely to be Nuremberg or Hanau?

Its an x.

Any idea who FK is?

I`d love to know more about this lovely pendant.

Solved: Its Johann Samuel Beckensteiner. Looking from another angle the letters are clearly BS.

Any idea? Sadly the makers mark is not quite legible.

Thank you for the link. The ladle is beautiful!

Any idea who "EU" could be? Its on spoons from the late 18. century.

EU
crescent + B
13

Hi :) Are you able to identify the maker? I can`t even read the letters. Is it TC? Or PD? Or ...

I did not find it in "Meisterverzeichnis der steirischen Silberschmiede, 1935". Maybe you have better references.

Well, this is the best forum, so I have high hopes. Thanks for your quick response!

Today I found this unusual piece. Can you help me with the coat of arms? It was made in Vienna, 1872-1922.

Thank you very much for all your help! Your links offer so much information, but still no EC in sight. The Earl of Cromer is still a possibility.

:) Thank you for your quick response!

Do you think the use of the crown was limited to the Khedive's family? Or could it be EC for Evelyn Baring, 1st Earl of Cromer, who was the British controller-general in Egypt?
