Arts & Crafts Salt - MFES

Postby Granmaa » Thu Feb 09, 2012 12:41 pm

I really don't know about this salt. Arts & Crafts style, so most likely early 20th Century, but I don't have much idea where it was made. Maybe Britain, maybe Germany. They do have a beautiful mark which I hope someone will recognise.

Great piece, and wow- what an interesting mark! I can't find it, but if it's English then it's a very unusual makers mark for silver (must be silver- firestain). Not impossible, but it's not in "Treasures of the 20th Century". I also looked in a few other books on general Nouveau and A&C silver, but no avail.

Maybe American? They made a lot of English looking arts and crafts.
