Hy all,

I can't find a match for the HK&B monogram, and what does the symbol on the left stand for?

It is German crescent moon and crown mark after 1888.

Dear AG2012 yeah I agree but I don’t recognize the symbol on the left and the silversmith, for sure the object come from Germany

::::: 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. :::::

The key mark on the left is definitively Koch & Bergfeld.

Dear Aguest thank you very much for your help!
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.
