Re: Please help identify silver hallmark, maker's mark on Venetian gondola

Re: Please help identify silver hallmark on Silver bowl

Hi Italiansilver, All cases that you keep are correct and acceptable. In all cases, however, the retailer is not just a dealer but also a manufacturer. Here, the smaller silversmith works either in his own name or in the name and on behalf of the larger manufacturer. In this respect 3 variants: 1. O...
