Lippa silversmiths in Vienna

Post by AG2012 »

Hi,
Two marks of Lippa family in Vienna.
L&C stands for Lippa & Company.
GL stands for Georg Lippa.

Both marks are found alongside Diana mark, either 900 or 800 standard.
Vienna Secession silver (Jugendstil, Art Nouveau) (e.g.for Wiener Werkstätte), but also traditional design with hand painted enamel.

Any info about Lippa silversmiths is appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello, both marks were taken from the CD published by the MAK museum in Vienna. Did you ask them for the copyright first ? Regards, Bahner

Hi,
No need for permission.
http://kulturpool.bmb.gv.at/display/kupo/Home

is the same as French

http://www2.culture.gouv.fr/public/mistral/marque_fr

Besides, images were not used for commercial reasons, but for research.
The target groups of the culture pool are the public interested in culture, schoolchildren, teachers, as well as science and research.
(Zielgruppen des Kulturpools sind die kulturinteressierte Öffentlichkeit, SchülerInnen, LehrerInnen, sowie Wissenschaft und Forschung.)

Whatever group my question belongs to, I doubt schoolchildren mentioned above are supposed to ask for permission.
As soon as batteries are charged, I will post images of L&C marks on my item.
Regards
