Hello, I looked through the German forums but couldn't find this maker. My mother-in-law's mom came from Berlin to Brazil with this set and I am trying to help her trace the history of it. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hi,
It is actually letter G in Star of David for Jakob Grimminger who worked in Schwabisch Gmund. The firm was founded in 1893 and by the 1930 had a fine reputation as producer of modern silver.
Regards

His mark is listed here:
