925 Handarbeit
Hy all,
I can't identify the maker's mark for this presentation silver kovsh.
I can't find a match for the HK&B monogram, and what does the symbol on the left stand for?
anyone can help me?

::::: The hallmarks seem consistent with those of Koch & Bergfeld of Bremen :::::::
::::: I'm not sure what the "M" over "K & B" hallmark means, it seems like it should be the hallmark of the retail shop that sold the Kovash, but in theory that could be something like "Manufacturers Koch & Bergfeld" sort of like an additional makers mark. :::::

::::: Sorry, "H" over "K & B" might mean "Handmade by Koch & Bergfeld" like an additional hallmark for hand-made (Handarbeit) items. :::::

maybe you could help me with another German hallmark but an ancient one, or at least it would seem to be, I made a post some time ago and it hasn't received an answer.
thank you very much again!

Hello, the "H" over "K&B" is for Klaus Hansen, head and owner of the department for holloware between 1994 and 2005, when Florian Blume took over. Regards, Bahner.
