silver box
hi, i have recently come across a silver box. i can't find out anything about it on any of the web sites. it is strange that it has two different marks at each end of the box. please can anybody out there help. thanks in anticipation, john dav [/url]
[/url]Hi John,
The Sun mark is the import mark for London, the K indicates that the date of the import was 1905, the 925 is the standard for sterling silver i.e.925/1000. The BM is the importers mark and stands for Berthold Muller. He was a very large importer of silver at this period.
I'll let someone else describe what may be Belgium marks?
Hope this helps.
Regards Trev.
