800 Silver Germany Necklace RFI

Hi Everyone,

Hoping someone can comment on this necklace, marked Handarbeit 800 G H separated by a ship mast. No crown / crescent moon mark, does this indicate pre-1886?
Thanks in advance!
Nancy

Hello, that is Gebrueder (Bros.) Hollander from Pforzheim. On smaller pieces sometimes halfmoon and crown are missing. This is after 1888. Best wishes, Bahner

Thank you Bahner, I really struggled with dating the necklace, this is very helpful. I did several searches for Gebrueder Hollander & wasn't able to find any other references. If you know, can you say when they were producing jewelry? Again, many thanks.
