sorry .. Wolf & Knell in Hanau
Re: sweetmeat dish or wine taster
Thank you very much. I have added new marks to my understanding of Hanau silver. I believe this is the first one I have found that has been partially hand hammered.
Re: sweetmeat dish or wine taster
Could you tell me other than the two headed eagle which of the two photos of marks is attributed to Wolf and Knell?
Re: sweetmeat dish or wine taster
I found it thank you.

Rotate it 90 degree to the right.
It is a half eagle and looks similar to the weappon of Nuremberg or the hallmark of Preschau,
but it is'nt.

Thank you. These cross over pseudo marks makes one think Wolf & Knell may have collaborated with some other Hanau smith in this instance.
