Silver plated teacup holders?

[rob67]

I have what I believe is a set of six teacup holders. They have a large hole in the middle of the cup and the only mark I can find is the hallmark which is a diamond shape and appears to have "F & M N " inside the diamond. Any ideas who made these and if it is silver plate? Thanks.

Hello, that is Felsenstein und Mainzer from Nuremberg, Germany. They never made any silver, just silverplated stuff like this one and fine German art nouveau pewter. Best wishes, Bahner
