Enamelled spoon

Post by JanGroen »

Good day

I am looking for information on this sterling Silver Gilt enamel Demitasse tea spoon. It has a lot of markings. First mark is oval with 3 crowns, then S followed by 925 S. Not certain what the last mark is.

Hi,
It`s Swedish import mark used until 1988.
Most likely Germany,Finland or Norway.Cannot recognize the mark on the right.

Hi Jannie,

Marks from left to right:

3 crowns in an oval - Official Swedish import mark before 1988(If the 3 crowns were inside the shape known as the cats paw, it would mean made in Sweden.

Letter S in the hexagon - accompanies the 3 crown mark, officially showing the item is made from 925 (sterling) silver.

925 S - used in Norway and Denmark to show item is made from 925 (sterling) silver.


Final mark is the makers mark which I'm unable to attribute however as a starting point, I suggest it may be a poorly struck mark of Clement Berg of Oslo.

Cheers,
Steve

Thank you for all your information. It does resemble Clement Berg's hallmark and I found similar spoons on internet.
