Re: Dutch Apostle Spoons??

I just noticed that there is a sword next to the stem ... it looks like style # D on the dutch hallmark page on this site, but I can't get a good enough picture to blow up large enough on my monitor to confirm. This would also support the 1890-1910 aging.

Re: Dutch Apostle Spoons??

The maker's hallmark is either W.L or W.K .... but it is pretty blurry I think the second mark is an Anchor (of some shape or flavor) The third mark might be something like this (pardon the poor MS Paint drawing) http://b.imagehost.org/0757/hallmark.jpg However, it might be sideways ....

Dutch Apostle Spoons??

I'm posting this in the Dutch silver section because I believe that these are dutch based on the family history behind them. However, feel free to move it to the correct forum if I'm wrong.

Looks close .. but not quite exactly the same. I've already fired off an e-mail to the company. Once that comes back I'll be sure to let you know.

Re: Help identifying hallmarks

Thanks for the information. However, I am still unable to locate any more information about this pattern. Nor can I decipher the date marking. I don't imagine that these items are very old - mainly because of the single die striking of the hallmark. My curiosity has the better of me at the moment.

Help identifying hallmarks

Greetings, I'm fairly certain that this item (and it's kin) are silverplate. However, after spending hours looking through 1000's of patterns I cannot seem to locate the country of origin, the maker, or when it was made.
