Please help, can't find any marks, uknown silver pot

Postby Andrius » Thu Mar 19, 2009 5:53 pm

Hello,

I hope you can help. I have an old silver pot, but I only know some few information about it. The biggest problem is that I can't find any marks on it, or can it be, that there is no mark.
This pot was found in Lithuania ( Baltic states )

This is an impressive item, how big is it?
Of course there is a chance that there are no silver marks on the silver item. Is this silver or silverplated?

I wish I could tell more about this piece, but I cannot. Just wanted to let you know that it looks interesting and quite old.

I see the mark that Theoderich sees.. just below the rim in the second picture........ in the centre. Best wishes, Mike.
