Hello

I looked through a box I have, filled with unwanted stuff, and I found a few silver item... What did I think of when I discarded them !

Here is a French wax stamp, with a floral design.

It is marked on the stem, and again on the plaque with the monogram : the boar's head for .800 silver and tha makers mark : H - a chalice - N

Can someone tell me who the maker is, and if he is famous ?

Thanks in advance for your help !

I shall also post a scaninawian bowl (Nowegian, I think...)

Best regards

François

Hello, if the >chalice< is actually an anvil, then it is probably H. Nègre from Marseille. Best wishes, Bahner
