Spoon, A.Lohse Goldsmith, Bergen

Postby tkamsvaag » Wed Dec 11, 2013 1:39 pm

Hello,
I'm confused by the marks on this spoon. It appears to be silver with a gold wash. The silver mark is clear enough but the marks after that are a mystery to me.

Here's the spoon in the box and a close up of the box top:

Here are the marks: Note* The two images of the marks are the same image - the top one is inverted for easier reading... I hope

Thanks again for any info
Peace
Tore

Your spoon is made by Johan Gotfred Kjærland in Bergen 1937-1985. It is made in the 1950ths

Hello Tosten,
Thanks so much for replying to all three of my posts today!

Question: Reading the mark from left to right "925" "S" "?" "GK" >> Is the mark before the GK the A. Loshe Makers Mark?

Thanks again
Peace
Tore

Thanks again Tosten,
It just didn't look like a "J" - but now that you say it I do see the "J"...

Peace
Tore
