Austrian silver bowl need help to id maker

[niceguy1]

HI ALL

I have this silver bowl, it appears to be Austrian & the maker appears to be H S & a letter which identifies the city but is too small to make out.

Who is this maker & what year was it made?

THANKS

It measures 5 1/2 inches wide & 2 1/2 inches tall.

Good Day,

Just using the chart here at 925. Your Minerva head if that is the correct identification of this woman's profile, is the 800/1000 mark used between 1872-1922. What appears to be the capital letter P for the city of Pest. HS or H-S did not seem to be identified in any discussions on this site. Please do read through them yourself, there is a wealth of knowledge there.

Will leave it to one of the experienced knowledgeable members to identify the maker for you.

Hope this helps.
Warren

Hello!
I don't have the Neuwirth: Wiener Silber II, or any source for this period in Wien, but as I know, this must be the maker mark of Hermann Südfeld.
Best regards!

Thanks Warren, Krisztian & trev for your help.

What i don't understand is why does this have the letter P for Pest if it was made in Wein?
