Silver Pheasant

Postby silvermatters » Wed Feb 20, 2008 6:52 pm

Hi,
I have a silver pheasant that is marked 935 and has a maker's mark that I am not familiar with. Does anyone know what country this was made in or who the maker was?

I believe the mark is that of J. L. Schlingloff of Hanau, Germany; these realistic avian table garnitures were very popular in Germany in the first quarter of the 20th century.
