Spoons

Post by Raffaello »

HI. I have these two spoons from my aunt, they should be Italian from the period just before or just after the Second World War, I haven't been able to identify who the silversmith is.
Thanks to anyone who will give me a suggestion. Greetings.

A little before WWII, before 1935.
The silversmith is Gianguido Sambonet, one of the best-known names in the field of cutlery.

Amena and Trev,
thank you for your valuable information. In recent days I have discovered that a Gianguido Sambonet published in 1987 "Gli argenti milanesi", Editrice Longanesi; I don't think it's the same Gianguido of the punch. Greetings

To be precise, the founder of the company was Giuseppe Sambonet, in 1856 with this mark

Gianguido, he is his son and is the author of several books, including "Gli argenti milanesi", he also continued the magnificent collection of cutlery started by his father now exhibited, in part, at the Castello Sforzesco in Milan.
