Not Nürnberg and I think it is not old.
The images of marks are not good.

Hi, Berlin around 1809. FW ; Prussian tax duty/levy mark.The Prussian levy mark used between 1809-1812 for older & used silver objects on which a tax of approx. 33% was paid. With this tax, the Prussians financed their war reparations to France. Maker's mark CV perhaps for Carl Vogel. Let us wa...

Is "S. Lindler"/Slindler/Stindler/... the maker and IFTIM/IFUM/... the town?

Spindler (in Berlin)
I.F.Tim(m) in Stettin

Lets have a look in the book of Köszeghy.
Pressburg
P. 294/5 no. 1741
? probably Jobst von der Gabor???
it is not sure

It is indeed confusing. The letters are not known in this form and it looks as if the A was subsequently stamped. The rest of the BZ is also unusual and a HI or IH brand is not yet known. It is quite possible that these marks were later applied to this mirror and have nothing to do with the manufact...

Hi! Can anyone help me with identifying the maker's mark and dating this frame for Immaculata marble relief? this is indeed a very interesting Question. I can not find this variation of hallmark. The hallmark looks overstruct and there are two Letters an A over M? But the hape of this mark looks no...

Yes, looks like JR. In the book from Seling this mark is not mentioned. There are a few possibilities whit this initials in this area/time, but I am not sure. Joseph Anton Reidler, Silberarbeiter Johann Friedrich Ruoff, Goldarbeiter Johann Georg von Rauner, Silberhändler Johann Christian Reinhard, S...

Peter.

The hallmarks looks OK, but I can not read the makersmark. We need a better image of makersmark.

Concerning your bowl I had contacted Professor Richter, who thereupon had collected interesting information about the bowl. He is readily prepared to pass on these results - but not to an anonymous person. Professor Richter would like to know to whom these information will be passed.

I think I was able to decipher the content of this scene. My first thought was that it would be Holy Communion, but apparently there are also women sitting at this table, so I had to quickly dismiss this thought. Then I thought of a holy Passover, with the sacrificial lamb on the table, but I had to...

FG is probably Jakob Foell & Karl Gluth.

You will find your marks there. It ist Foell & Comp. in Hanau.

In order to get certainty about the authenticity of your object it is absolutely necessary to perform a scientific examination of the bowl. The knowledge of the elemental composition of the silver may answer the question: is the bowl an authentic object of the early 17th century or an imitation of t...

You said it. A lot can go wrong here.

You shouldn't do anything here. You can destroy a lot there. It is better to do nothing than to do something wrong.
Only a very specialized expert can do that.

Unfortunately the piece is damaged. But you have to be very careful and only entrust it to a very experienced specialist. Here, too, Mr. Richter can advise you. I can send you a PM with contact details so you can contact him directly.

Thanks for the reply, I have been looking online to find a possible maker but with no luck so far. Martin I think it is Johann Gottlob Pundselius in Schleiz, later in Wien. ------------------------------------------------------ Johann Gottlob Bonselius, Bürger und Goldarbeiter in Schleiz, Sohn des ...

It could be Dresden if there was a letter D. But there isn't. Crossed swords were used in many cities in Saxony from the 1700s. Often with a letter corresponding to the first letter of the city. But here there is no letter for the city. Have you already searched for the manufacturer of this can in a...

I don't even dare to write anything about it. I think it's really nice work. I also believe that the "engravings" are etched. To do this, the object was covered with a fine layer of wax and the wax was then removed with a graver from the areas where the acid would later do its work. A real...
