help !

Post by Magems »

Hi everybody,

I'm new on this forum, so I'm not sure to post in the right place.
Have you ever seen this mark ? I took the photo on a bracelet circa 1960 made in Italy and imported in France : MA + Pine tree (i do not understand how to post a picture...°

Thank you,
Magems

Hi Magems,

I have a personal opinion about this mark.

1929

'MA' and a tree device, the tree looks like a pine. I believe the French for 'Pine' is 'Pin'. 'MA PIN'.

I think we are looking at the retailer mark of Mappin & Webb's Paris branch, but have yet to find anything concrete to back up my thoughts.

Can you post an image of all the marks that accompany this mark in a group together?

Hello Dognose,

So strange, actually there is no other mark on the bracelet excepted an italian mark for the maker and a french mark for gold import. And this one MA + tree ... But no UK marks on the jewel.

Thank you for information, very interesting indeed, will continue to search !

Best,

I would not expect any UK marks. Mappin & Webb of Paris would have been the retailer only and would have likely sourced their products from several countries.

I would still appreciate an image of all of the marks if possible as this is yet another clue to the source of this mark.
