Unidentified hallmarks and unusual pieces, possibly Italian

Postby oliver_at » Wed May 09, 2012 4:45 pm

Hi folks,

I am new here, my name is Oliver and I recently inherited a very nice collection of vintage silver cutlery. Not everything is silver, but all pieces seem collectible. I was able to learn about most of the hallmarks by reading the webpage, which btw truly is an excellent ressource!

From a few things, I am looking to find more details:

One thing is a set of ordinary spoons - they look like silver but there is only one subtle hallmark, possibly indicating a crown. I have no idea where this comes from, all I can say it has been in the family for 50 to 100 years and my family's roots are from Northern Italy. So possibly these are italian spoons - however, in the collection I already found Austrian and French cutlery...

Here are two images:

Any input is greatly appreciated and should the owner of the website want to publish the hallmarks, I am happy to agree to use the photos freely...

Thanks and all the best!

Reconsider silver- plate in this particular case.
