Good evening I am trying to figure out if this could be Russian hallmarks on this cigarette case I want to buy. It bares the German 800 mark but other marks don't look German. Could it be German marks on a case imported from Russia? This is the only available pictures. Groete Jannie https://i.postim...

I agree that it is a sugar bowl, or a sweetmeat bowl, and needs a glass liner. It's definitely a Hayne & Cater mark and the date letter is the G of 1842/43. Phil Thank you for your quick reply. I am thinking of getting a liner made by a local potter in town. Think it will be nice to put a littl...

Good day I have bought this object a while back. I think it is a sugar bowl missing a lining. It is 8cm in diameter and about 6cm heigh. I think it is marked SH DC for Samuel Hayne & Dudley Cater. It is not easy to see the date letter as it is cut off. I bares the Victoria head mark and one of t...

Good Evening

A seven pearled crown were used in some countries for a Baron.
Hope this helps

I searched the topic a bit more and found this article: http://www.ascasonline.org/windowMAGGI107.html "This mark could be narrowed down to have been applied to the spoon between 29 May and 20 June 1837 - a mere 23 days. The last day of the year marking for the William lV era 1836-1837 was 28 ...

Good evening I have obtained a Kings Pattern spoon today. It bares the date stamp for 1837 and the kings head. I am not sure who made it. The makers mark looks like WE . There are another mark that looks like a 1/4 , not sure what it is. Did they use the kings head till June and after that change it...

Good evening I have bought this tin this weekend. I does seem to be a solid silver snuff box from Asian origin. The picture on lid seems to be an Asian Elephant and a lion. I can't seem to find any hallmarks. Any more information would be welcome . Groete Jannie https://i.postimg.cc/xjWCKnRK/IMG-201...

The date is 1905. It is the Greek letter 'Chi', the Walker & Hall date cycle 1884-1911 uses the Greek alphabet.

Trev.

Thank you for helping me with the date. Now I will try the crest. It is a CN with 2 dragons next to it.

Good Day I have bought a Walker and Hall spoon today. It has a crest on it that I would like to decipher. Any idea of the age of the spoon will be welcome aswell. I know the X is a date letter. Thanks Jannie https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg

Good evening A friend of mine ask me information about this crucifix she inherited. I cant find any hallmarks on it but did find scratched in numerals/marks that reminds me of similar markings i saw on one of my Persian pieces. It is about 8cm x 4cm. It consists of 3 separate pieces connected by pin...

Here it is:

They only use the spoon as an example and don't show hallmarks. It is on page 26 of Simon Moore, SPOONS 1650-1930. Will take pic of it now.

That is interesting. So your spoon must be a copy/fake of the one in the book? It has the exact pattern and engraving.

Jannie

It also looks like the same spoon from the book.

Jannie

Good day

My book say it is a bright-cut decorated Old English spoon from 1770-1780.

Possibly Peter Clarke Daniel, although I'd wait for confirmation on that.

Thank you again for this help.
any idea what the bust and other mark can represent? Surely they are not just made up to look British?
