Danish Silver Mouse Spoon?

Post by dw171 »

I bought a large lot of silverware and almost all of it was Danish. I haven't seen Danish marks like this, but I don't know where else to start. Top mark looks like crossed swords with a crown on top and the bottom mark is too illegible for me to read. Its a very well made and detailed spoon. Its about 5 3/4" long. Hoping somebody recognizes the partial hallmarks. Any help is appreciated.

Do the characters of the hallmark appear to be Japanese? :: There were tiny carvings called "netsuke" and although relatively few were made of silver, still the high quality of the work here does suggest a Japanese maker or possibly Chinese export maker ::: A Far East forum member might be able to tell you more, if indeed these are Japanese characters :

Thanks, I couldn't match it to any Chinese maker's listed on here so far.
