Hi,

Purchased a tea caddy from anauction which was listed as French "indistinct marks"

One marks within the square punch seems to have a "II"? The other looks laike an urn or a jug with handles? can anyone please help me need help me with identification. I have spent time looking here on French stamps, and others on the web plus different countries ie Germany, Holland, Baltic but to no avail

I think it`s Portugal, either Lisbon or Porto; cannot see properly.
Here is the link to older and newer Portuguese marks to compare:

Maker`s mark is in an oval.

Yes you are right, the stamp seems to be the .830, eagle head II, 1900-1913, suprisingly small stamps for an article the size of a tea caddy, more for a caddy spoon.

I much apreciate the info and quick reply
