Hy all
Im having some diffculties in recognizing the silversmith of this strange? small vermeil weinprobierschale and to interpret the writing under the case back, I thought it was Hebrew but they corrected me.

Hy Theoderich, nope, any tremolierstich sign on it, just those I already uploaded. What do you think about them and the inscription? What language is that??

Dear Aguest, I'll trust you and I'm waiting for his reply, wishing he can help me!
Fingers crossed

I'm afraid I can't give an answer here for now. Without hallmarks it is difficult to assign the bowl to a city. The initials MS are also not so rare as to significantly reduce the possibilities. It is also possible that the shell was not made in Germany. At least you can rule out the usual suspects (Augsburg, Nuremberg).

Dear Aguest I still trust in Theoderich to recognize the monogram and and thus also be able to date the artifact
