This fish fork clearly marked with the "Spindelpresse" for Wilkens, 835S and some other marks: the Dutch "V" (vreemd) a Duty mark for imported objects used 1906-1953 and three marks, a climbing bear, a man'sface and a bird. What stand the three marks for? Regards silverfan https:...

Hi Phil, thank you very much for your detailed explanation. I now think it is b for 1876. I own 23 pieces, the other 19 pieces (not shown) are marked with Sheffield X for 1857 and JL for I think John Law. One fork is lacking. Do you think that there is a possibility to get the lacking fork? Regards ...

Cannot identify the marking of these Birmingham items with ivory handle. Is the year letter b or h, the upper line is forked, what I do not find in my Bradbury's book of hallmarks.

A.P. might be the silver worker or the seller.

I think there are only two possible makers: Otto Hintze, Hamburg or Otto Wolter, Schwäbisch Gmünd. The shape of the chalice resembles more that one of Otto Wolter.

it is German, exported to Russia, produced since 1900 by Koch & Bergfeld, Bremen and designed by Hugo Leven, model no. 25600, also called "Bremer Lilie". There is no maker's mark. The standing bear, often discussed in this forum, is supposed to be the mark for silver 875 (like in Switz...

This cup which I think is plated has marks which shall look English but are not. The marks show from left to right: a cup, an S, a hand. Does anybody have an idea about the maker? Regards silverfan https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg
