silver candlesnuffer Hamburg?

[ktiggeloven]

Hi

could somebody help me decypher the marks on this candle snuffer I bought. The mark looks to be Hamburg (but a little hard to date exactly). There is an 818 below the mark, and a maker's mark that looks like the one from Matthias Fisscher. Does anybody know whether is is indeed Hamburg, or when it dates>
Thanks in advance,

Kasper

Hi Kasper,

Not Hamburg, but Genoa. The date would be 1818.

I'll move the topic to 'Other Countries'.

perfect, thanks. Anybody any ideas on the maker?
Thanks in advance.

Unless that triangular mark represents a maker, there appears to be not one present.

The little type of round mark above the triangular mark I thought might be a maker's mark. It looks to be a fish. Maybe I am imagening things, but it is a mark struck (whereas the triangular marks are part of the fabrication).
Thanks for the help so far.

The dolphin is a Genoese mark, not a maker's mark.
