Hi Folks. I was hoping somebody can help me with this piece. I've seen this mark before, but can't recall the maker and can't find it. It's a large piece, about 2.5" in diameter. I don't believe the chain is original to it. Most likely 1960s-70s. Kindly let me know if this looks familiar :) htt...

Dear experts! Came across a very unusual piece that has 925 hallmark and another pronounced but incredibly tiny hallmark that I'm having trouble identifying. See images below. http://www.upl.co/uploads/18671858821566575679.jpg http://www.upl.co/uploads/5882c1566575778.jpg Does anyone have an idea on...

Trev, thank you for the information! At the least, I now know it is Chinese
Also, wondering what is says :)

Thank you!

Hello! I have this sterling belt buckle, antique, I'd say 1920s. The only mark on back is S.M. I am not sure if it's Chinese or Japanese, been looking at hieroglyphics for awhile and can not recognize this stylized form. if someone can help me identify the language or the mark, that would be great! ...

Phil & Trev, thank you!
Sorry was out for the weekend.

Yes, that mark is spot on :) It seemed more detailed to me compared to the their other work, but I'm very glad I know what it is now.

Thanks a lot for all the help!

Best,
Mike.

Hi Phil, thank you very much! I can't find the combination of the these marks for Celtic Art Industries.

Hello. I have this great Scottish pin (see below). I figured by the hallmark, that it's from Edinburgh, 1977 ? However, there seems to be a Maker's mark to the left, which I cannot make out :( Maybe somebody is familiar with the maker and can point me in the right direction? https://www.925-1000.com...

Hi. I have these interesting earrings. I believe they are by an American designer that used old Chinese jade pieces. Could not find the mark online, hard to do since it's so similar to a copyright sign. Would anyone have an idea on who the maker is? http://www.upl.co/uploads/14503646211553781679.jpg...

Trev, thank you very much, wonderful!

Hi fellows.
I got these nice modernist earrings, I assume from 60s-70s.
Can anybody help identify the maker? I've tried and tried, and can't decipher it.





Thank you for your time!
Mike.

You're awesome! Thank you so much for your help!

Hi.

Recently purchased a small tray in US.
Has a strange mark that I cannot find. It looks like a griffin, a winged creature of some sort.
Any help with identification will be greatly appreciated!



Thank you!

I understand that, as I mentioned initially it was tested with magnet AND acid.
I've done some silver work myself, so I know for a fact that it's silver, just not sure of the purity.
