Hi, dear friends!

I am very grateful for your help always. At this time, I ask you to help me understand the age and place of production of this salt shaker (I know that it was imported to France (mark with a swan) and Sweden (mark with three crowns). Weight - 41 g, height - 6 cm.

Hello!
I believe it is from Stuttgart, the maker is Eduard Foehr (Föhr), circa 1840-1860.
Regards.

Hello, agree, hallmark of Stuttgart and Foehr as the maker. Foehr was founded in 1801 by Andreas Ludwig Foehr, Eduard (d. 1904) did not take over until 1858. So this might be from his time or before his time. Regards, Bahner
