I bought an Austrian shaker from a dealer in Argentina. It's marked "Vienna, 1826, Stephan Mayerhofer". And then there is the tiniest additional hallmark. Some sort of insect. Any idea what that is?
Import mark?

Silver is such a great topic! I would have never guessed Czechoslovakia. Now I know quite a bit more about the history of that piece. Thank you!
