MF makers mark 800 Silver souvenir spoon

[Sophanome]

I looked all over but can't find out who the maker is or what the definite country of origin is. Anyone know?

Hello Sophanome

Actually I haven’t here any register of Central European maker’s marks. Yours souvenir spoon is out of German production — produced before or after Second World War. If I remember correctly — but please forgive if makers name isn’t correct itself - shown maker’s mark belong to Max Federlein, Bad Buchau / Württemberg, Germany. Production ranges were little products in silver alloy — e.g. souvenir spoon. Company existed also a time after Second World War. But now don’t exist any more on that place — maybe further more some where in a merger?

Kind regards silverport

Actually in Germany is summer holiday period. So it was impossible for me to find out e-mail-address.

Hello, Mann & Federlein just used "M.F." in a circle. This here is the mark of Max Fleischmann from Pforzheim, a specialist for souvenir spoons of this kind. Best wishes, Bahner
