Hello moonshine, it is german silver and was made in the city Luebeck (I end of the 18th century or about 1800). The makers mark is very interesting. In Luebeck the several silver workshops has got numbers and different signs (for instance crown, sun, star, anchor etc.) One of this workshops signs w...

Hello Sveobra,

Trev was right.
Both makers marks ("CIB" and "B") are from Caspar Jacob Bra(h)mfeld (1749-1814, master since 1785).
The letter "S" in the city mark was used since1808. So it was produced about 1810.

Kind regards,
Ringo

additional:

There was mentioned a goldsmith Jozsef Nagy about 1828 in Sered, Slovakia.
(3 other goldsmithes namend Nagy from Trnava, Krupina and Komarno died in the 17th and 18th century and are not considered)

Ringo

Hello Arjan, I am no an expert in the design of old pipes. The style of the makersmark looks like made in the 19th century, but the foot of the one in the 12 Loth mark looks to me not like made about 1850. Based on this aspect and the decoration I would expect the pipe was made in the early (first q...

Hello Miles,

I am a little late, but I think my assumption concerning the origin was quite right. It is Frederik Janus Kreutzberg from Aarhus, Denmark.

Hello,
could it be Gustav Memmert from Berlin?

Hello porter27, the arrow mark was used up to 1964 by Robbe & Berking. Here some more informations: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=25572&hilit This arrow mark is often to find with retailers marks. Kind regards, Ringo https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg

Hello porter27, the spoons were made about or a little after 1900 by "Robbe & Berking" from Flensburg, Northern Germany (arrow mark). The date on the spoons seems to be 1908(?). Petersen is the retailer. Probably it is Asmus Christian Petersen, born 1833, since 1866 in Flensburg. But t...

Hello Atticcon2, the design of the fork and the arrangement of the marks let me think, that it was made in Romania. The 12 Loth mark was common there. Hello AG2012, the distribution of 12 Loth in Germany is not only in the eastern part. From Lower Saxony I also know mostly only 12 Loth silver, and N...

Hello Dendriet,

my english is not very good and maybe that there was a misunderstanding. But I have no doubt that Peter was right.

Kind regards,

Hello Peter,

I thank you for you very much your help. I expected this answer, but I hoped that the spoon could be older. But anyway it is a nice spoon.

Thanks and best regards,
Ringo

Hello,
I have a rat tail spoon from Johannes Schuyl from Amsterdam with date letter "S".

Is it the letter for about 1703 or about 1728?

Kind regards,

Hello Theo, thanks for this great puzzle - I did not expect that it is so difficult to solve. I found 16 goldsmithes named Schroeter from 14 cities ( the most of them you surely know; but there was also one in Magdeburg, Saalfeld, Strasbourg and Rapperswil). The only one with a first name beginning ...

Hello Theo,
I also thought about this mark.
Here is a better image. May be it helps.
Best regards, Ringo

Hello Trev,

I think it is the mark of Alexander Benediktowitsch Ljubawin (Lubavin) from St. Petersburg.

Kind regards,
Ringo

Hello Dendrit,

you are right, it is Georg Wilhelm Aldefeld from Bremen.
Kind regards, Ringo

Hello, it is surely not the mark of C.C. Rehder from Kiel. He was born 1759 and could not be the maker of the Ladle! Furthermore he marked with "CCR". Four more Goldsmithes from Rendsburg and Luetjenburg with the name Rehder are also to old or to young. Only two goldsmithes with this name ...

Hello,
early 19th century, made by Johann Carl Schauer (1770-1840) from Otterndorf.

Hello, can anybody help me with the maker of this nice spoon. The assayer is Ivan Vonifatiyevich Yevstigneyev and the "NP" mark seems to be one of the different marks from the merchants Nichols & Plinke. But the maker "KA" I have no idea. Kind regards, Ringo https://www.925-1...
