I have a knife and fork that I cannot securely identify, beyond the fact that they are surely German-made. The pattern is your classic "perlrand" (pearl edge), and both pieces seem well made and are in fairly good condition, despite their obvious age.


The only mark on the fork is a "90" indicating the standard/usual thickness of silverplating. The knife is also marked "90."


The knife blade bears the "twins" logo of the J.A. Henckels company of Solingen, Germany, plus the INOX designation indicating the blade is "inoxidable" (stainless steel). Also stamped on the blade is the word, "PFLAUMER," which led me to believe the manufacturer of the knife was going to be easy to identify. Ha!


I can't seem to find any indication that a "Pflaumer" silverware manufacturing company existed. Is the name not that of the manufacturer?

Hi DianaGaleM,
look in Google: "Museumswerkstatt Pflaumer Öhringen"
Regards silverfan

Thank you! Google is usually the first place I go, but somehow I didn't pick it up. In fact, I still don't when searching on just Pflaumer, unless I add "silber" or some other term to the search, which I didn't think to do at the time.

Fascinating history and workshop. I had no idea.

Thanks, again.
