or the mark could seem
VI 13X

not only the mark are recalling to a period around the fifties-sixties, but the design too, very typical vase of that period.

Yes is Italian and very typical as shape and details. there is the mark with the lozenge so you can locate between 1944 (no "fascio" symbol) and 1968 (1970). The id number and the province into the lozenge is not clear at all and sometime puctures are more confusing than what you can see b...

Hi AG2012, I come back on my steps, with big surprise from my side! If from one side I stay on the fact that basing on my experience the objects without lozenge are the minority and, for the major part, the manufacturing appears not from a modern production, on the other side, on the contrary of wha...

sure is mainly for the pleasure of the discussion
anyway I'll put particular attention to discover additional information on this subject

Hi AG2012, the fact that Buccellati "sometimes" forgot to mark the silver doesn't make a rule, and consequently saying that marking the silver was rather optional is really a big jump. Don't forget that Mario Buccellati firm started in 1919 so what strange in to have objects without the 15...

Hi Gerox, sincerely speaking from the finish I would say a piece from the fifties, but from the mark I can say before 1934, but not so much (too modern appearance). Regarding the provenance, the Lion mark suggests the Venetian area (Venezia, Padova, Treviso...). Regarding the manufacturer there is l...

this is a typical oval centerpiece called usually with the french word "Jatte" (bowl)
if you do a google search with the words
"jatte argento" you will find a lot of variety

the glass liner suggest that could be for something salted
the spoon, if really goes together the cup, could have the piercing to let some liquid fall
so to me looks like an appetizer cup...like for olives...

...i forgot...
the origin is Italian

Hi, there are salt cellars, usually combined with a third piece of same type, only longer, for teethpics. I have a set of liberty style (art Nouveau) of the same silversmith marked 800 - clover - LCC, coming from my family and a sugar bowl again liberty style marked 900 - clover - LCC. The mark syst...

Oel your answer gave me a hint. Up to now regarding this candlesticks I have done mainly mark research today I have done a style research and I have found that candelabra with the same style are often referred to "Austro-Hungarian Judaica candlesticks" maybe this gives additional direction...

Thanks! very interesting!!!! Regarding Pasarel description, it is not correct. Marking it only with silver content after 1934 is out of the law. So if there are really Italian are dating before 1934. So up to now I have to stay... or unknown or Italian (1872-1934) I can survive :-) because I bought ...

thanks! I bought in Italy form (north-east) Italian seller...but... I can say that in Italy 900% silver content is quite uncommon, but it exists (and sincerely speaking ... I have seen personally this grade only on two different pieces from the same silversmith...never identified) Additionally I can...

Hi , I have a couple of candlestick, the style is totally Austro-Hungarian but the mark is unknown, I have done a search in the forum and I have found only one suggestion to Yoga silver...but sincerly the stile is not convincing me at all. Is casted and the mark is MA900 Any other suggestion? https:...

S.Ambrogio, MIlano?

yes, 750 (into a lozenge) is 18k gold
white gold is used to not change diamond color
goldsmith number should be same as per silver (same number same manufacturer)...but not completely sure.

Is a sugar bowl, of a shape that i really like!!!
Unfortunately the cover is missing.

the tray, instead, is a very beautiful item!!!!

sure we are just comparing ideas! And I'm not so expert...just a lover... In particular I like Venetian 700 style...I'm from Padua...now living in Florence... The Venetian "cuccuma" is my favorite coffee pot! coming back to the topic: 1) yes I forgot that Tonghetti should have a T 2) As yo...
