Sorry, but I think the thimble is much younger. In my opinion, the code of year is "S7", i.e. 1920.

Hi all! I have a very nice little candy bowl from Italy. Hallmarks: the St.Mark lion, 800, and clipped lozenge with the silversmith code (unfortunately unreadable), “fascio” and the town code “VI” (?) — Vicenza. http://i49.tinypic.com/2l8k85f.jpg http://i50.tinypic.com/2qvxuuq.jpg http://i50.tinypic...

Hello!
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.

Best regards. Alex.

Hello, Bahner!
Thanks for the quick response! Unfortunately, it is too large time interval. I will look for similar items at auctions - may be possible to determine the year of manufacture more accurately.
Best regards. Alex.

Hello!
I have an Austro-Hungarian spoon, made in Vienna in the years 1872-1922. Maybe someone knows who is the maker "FB" and what it means the two-headed eagle?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all! I have a very nice strainer made by Körner&Proll ​​in Berlin. One question - when it could be done? Will be grateful for any hints. http://i49.tinypic.com/jqmkk8.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/10ga1rn.jpg http://i49.tinypic.com/2z9iiw6.jpg

Hi, Theoderich!
Thank you very much, but unfortunately my knowledge of German does not allow me to read this article now. I will seek a translator :-).
Best regards. Alex.

Thank very much, blakstone!
Your information is very, very full and interesting! But how to explain the fact that the Prussian mark "FW" was used in 1809-1812, and Carl Ludwig Berendt had died before it - in 1804?
Best regards, Alex.

Hello! I like old silver from Germany, but I'm still not good at German hallmarks. I suppose that this spoon was made in Danzig (two crosses and a crown on top) in 1809-1812 (Prussian tax mark "FW"). But the other two marks I don't know. Help me, please! http://i47.tinypic.com/qpkzmh.jpg h...

Not ancient, but old. Much older than me :-).
Many thanks for help!
Alex.

Thanks dognose, thanks oel! Very interesting information! And how do you think when this strainer could be made?
Best regards. Alex.

Hello! Could anybody help to identify these hallmarks? http://i49.tinypic.com/5yygw.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/2zyezih.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/2gy9esj.jpg Is this strainer from Germany or from any other countries, such as Turkey and the like? And in what period of time it was made? Will be gratef...

I agree that the book of P-L contains a lot of mistakes but why not to trust it in this case (Mitin and More)?

Excuse me, Qrt.S!
Of course "ЛЮБАВИНЪ" with double headed eagle, not crown. It's my mistake :-(. But I think that the mark's shield could vary from year to year...

Special for Dad! :-)

Sorry, Ort.S, but in the catalog of Russian hallmarks of Postnikova-Loseva is said that Alexander Jakovlevich Mor worked in 1831-1854 years. I'm afraid that your information is wrong :-(.



Best regards. Alex.

Hello! Sorry, but I think that Zolotnik is not right. Most likely the "AL" is early mark of famous Russian silversmith Lubavin Alexander Benedictovich (Любавин Александр Бенедиктович). In 1893-1917 he was the owner of the silver factory in St. Petersburg and was...

Hello! Your spoons were made in Sankt-Peterburg by silversmith Bragin Andrey Stepanovich (mark "АБ" - Брагин Андрей Степанович). He worked since 1852 and until the end of 19 century. "А.Ðœ" is the mark of assay maker Mitin Alexander Nikolaevich (МитиÐ...

Hi all! On this salt shaker in addition to standard Danish hallmarks there are mark "830" and something like "FO" or "F" and dot. http://i48.tinypic.com/20ua7a1.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/x53up4.jpg Maybe this shaker was made in Denmark, and then exported to other count...

Maybe someone knows who is the maker of this beautiful little bowl?




Thanks for any help.
