Help with two French maker's marks

Postby Pachko » Wed Apr 18, 2012 8:56 pm

Hello everyone,

I have a round French silver plate and large tray/platter that I'm having trouble identifying the makers for. I've searched the lists in the encyclopedia without finding them, so hope one of you experts can help me! I inherited these from my French grandmother and the crest on the tray we believe to be her family coat of arms, which I'm also trying to identify (separate post). I think the platter is solid silver - but not too sure about the round plate.

Here are the images for the tray/platter.

Thank you very much.
