I have this interesting Dutch server with, for once, very clear marks. Despite that, I have no idea who made this in Amsterdam and when. The mark looks like HF (conjoined) K below a coffee pot. As always, any help would be most useful.

Can anyone point me to a good on-line Dutch makers' marks site. The one that is always cited doesn't help me very often.

Thanks,

Silverk.

To my knowledge (yet) no on-line Dutch makers' marks site.
Try GZU- online, choose English version and go to Hallmarks. It shows many maker's marks.

Hi Oel,

Once again, a very clear answer!

Have a great Christmas,

Silverk.

Just tried the site - as you say, many maker's marks. This looks as though it can really help!
