Can anyone help with the identity of the maker of this tea strainer and stand?:







Any thoughts appreciated.

Hi Zolotnik,

Thanks for responding. That's the only one that I came up with. See: http://www.925-1000.com/Fgerman_marks_a1884_8.html

There have been a couple of earlier topics on the forum that describe a similar curved arrow mark (the images are unfortunately no longer available), but they also failed to get an answer. Both these queries emphasized on the curve of the arrow.

Hello, not Robbe and B. Saw the mark on a few Hanau style pieces (flatware, small silverware) and seem to remember (very dimly though) that J. Gehrlein in her book on rose pattern cutlery deals with this mark. I don`t have a copy and cannot look it up, hopefully another member of the forum can. Regards, Bahner

Hi Bahner,

Thanks for the information. Let's hope someone has a copy of that book. (Rosen-Bestecke - Johanna Gehrlein - 2009)

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

It would be best to start a new topic with images of your item and the mark and hopefully someone will come forward with the information.
