...I think that this candy bowl is made in Italy from 1872 to 1933, and the mark is very similar to the emblem of Turin... Hello Ubaranda, your hint looks well! I found it now under http://www.925-1000.com/Fitalian_marks_01.html , Unsanctioned Common Marks, bottom right. Regards from Austria
C - C diveded by a tree? Is it possible the "tree" is part of a balance? CC remembers me to Charles Christofle, France. Make a look to http://www.925-1000.com/a_christofle.html
Hallo trevorg, during the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy there were used three city marks which are similar to the hallmark. Such a "double cross" was used in Leutschau, now Levoca (Slovakia), end 16th century to about 1860, in Altsohl, now Zolyan (Slovakia), 1620 to 1666, and in Debreczen (H...
Hi lavenderhoney, the left hallmark on the second photo is the "bearhead". It was used for 14 kt gold, made in Austria 02.May 1922 to 02.August 1925. The "4" on the left side of the head means gold no.4 = 585/1000 or 14 kt, the "W" on the right side of the head is the c...

Rohrwasser, Österreichs Punzen, 1983, Verlag Bondi, ISBN 3-900 008-07-8), the Emperor of Austria, Franz I., had to less money and so he introduced a tax for second hand silver and g...
Hallo Zolotnik! Thank you for your answer! I know now, the "box" isn´t made of silver. The base metal is brass and it is silver plated. I think the best forum is >>Silverplate Trademarks - Worldwide<<. Can you tell me, how I can transfer this post to the new forum, please? Or is this chan...

Yes!! I can see it! Many thanks, sometimes I cannot see the wood because of many trees! ;-)
On a "box" for possible olibanum I found an Old Austrian tax mark with the city mark for Lemberg (Lwiw), 1806-1824. But there are two further marks, maybe makers mark; does somebody have informations about these two marks, please? Kind regards goldreserach http://als.8ung.at/images/Weihrau...
I got a ladle with two marks and without a finess mark. Befor I destroy the surface for a silver assay, I would ask you for your opinion: Is it possibly a silver plated ladle? And if yes, have somebody an idea for the two marks. On the top of the diamond mark you can see "8M" or maybe &quo...
