The spoons of this style I know from Schleswig-Hostein (mostly made in Flensburg or made by Spliedt, Itzehoe) are interestingly exclusive dated in the the seventies of the 19th century. I...

Hello, can anybody help me with this type of spoon? Its handle is hollow and made of two pieces.

Hello, I have got informations from the city-archive Tübingen that there is an article about the gold- and silversmiths from Tübingen. It is in Tübinger Blätter 51. Jg. (1964) S. 40-45. There is written, that Paul Friebel was born in Frankfurt/Oder. He married 1700 the daughter of the tübingian...

Hello, I most probably have the name of the maker. I wrote to several Museums and antique-traders of Tübingen. The antique-traders never answered, but a museum refers me to another and at last to the Württemberg State Museum. A former employee of the Württemberg State museum collected information...

Hello agphile,
I thank you very much for your help.

I'm afraid that the maker is unascertainable. Thats why I would like to ask you if someone can tell me something about chronologic relevant details of the spoon. The Tübingen-mark in Rosenberg is from the 18th century, but I have seen nearly the same type made in england in the second half of the 1...

Hello Theoderich,
thank you, it really looks like Tübingen. I would be glad, if someone knows the master.

Hello, can someone help me to identify the city- and the makers mark on this spoon? I am not quite sure, if it is from Germany, but I think so. I am interested how old the spoon is and would be happy, if someone can help me. Kind regards, Ringo http://i47.tinypic.com/353dvef.jpg

Would it help, when the letter is not so see as a E but as a combination of more letters (TE, TEL or TFL)? When it is so, then the mark is most likely the makers mark and not the city mark. Could the H be the city mark?

Kind regards,
Ringo

Hello,
could it be a retailer mark?
But why is on the ladle no city mark? Or is the ladle made after 1886 and with a purity less then 800?
Curiously the mark of the Hamburg sport club (HSV) looks very similar.
kind regards, Ringo

Hello Theoderich, thank you very much. I did not know the word "item". If it helps, here is a Photo of the items. Good to see is also the typical form of the shoulders or wings from the spoon. This form I have only seen on Augsburger Faden-spoons and forks made in Hamburg. Kind regards, Ri...

Hello, can someone tell me, why the article was moved from "German silver" to "German, French, Dutch, Russian, Scandinavian or Other"? When I now the reason, I can make it better next time. But indeed it is silver from Hamburg (see here: http://www.925-1000.com/Fger_hamburg_01.ht...

Hello,
I have a question about the rhomb-mark on Hamburg-silver. The Watty-mark is Johann Heinrich Watty (1816-1889), the B&G mark is probably Brahmfeld & Gutruf (since 1842). When and why this mark was used?

Kind regards,
Ringo
