I have a beautiful French cameo brooch with eagle head hallmark for 18K gold. I cannot identify the maker's mark on the clasp.

Greetings. I have a glass dish with silver rim marked with French hallmarks. The first is the Minerve 1st title mark. There are two areas where it is stamped with the maker's mark.

I found a mark that looks very similar for the maker MORAND (Orfèvre de Morand, initiales "DM" et un sapin ). I could not find it however on this site or on the culture.gouv.fr site :-(

JayT & Silverfan, Thank you so much for helping me! With your guidance, I think I found the silversmith. I searched for small tea and coffee pots online, adding a date of 2000 or so, to see if I could find something brand new in a boutique. I did find the boutique of Andre Morand, which has a lo...

I was able to do a little research. The Minerva mark here is modern, used after 1972 when silver content was lowered from .950 to .925. However I am unable to identify the letters surrounding the Minerva head. I do see the number one to indicate .925, but do not understand the letters or symbols to ...
