Re: Please help to identify the author and manufacturer.

Nice Art Nouveau coffee pot. Once part of a tea and coffee service. Likely made in Belgium, last period 19th century- early 20th century. Not sure about the star retailer/maker's mark. Silver fineness 900 M(illième) or 90% pure silver.

Re: Viking Basket Needs Help

I do not believe it to be lacquered and I should start with a little silver polish. First have it washed with warm water and some dishwasher detergent and do the same after finish polishing. I think originally the basket had a insert (cobalt blue) glass liner. Good luck and let me know the result. P...

Hi welcome to the forums, 925 is not a hallmark, no assayer checked the the silver fineness. The number 925 indicates sterling silver.
