Dear forum,

I own a set of tea spoons., cake forks and a cakeserver. The yearletter is a crowned N, which indicates juli to december 1948. The letter of the essay office is polished away so that I don't know. The cakeserver is the only fully marked item, the spoons are just marked woth the "sword ...

Dear Silverport,

Thank you very much for your extended research. Although without "proof" - so far I could not find these napkin rings in Keltum's product range but I intend to contact them on this shortly - I am convinced that you are right: The mailhorn on the napkin rings resembles the mailhorn ...

Dear Silverport,

Thank you again for your extended and detailed reply.

Dear Postnikov,

Thank you for your explanation. I actually would not have been surprised if you had known the name of the vendor too..........

P.S.: the spoon weighs 20 grams......

Dear Postnikov,

Thank you very much for this additional information! It is the only Russian object I have and it makes me think of my old-uncle Nicolaas van Wijk - same name as mine - who lived for a while in Moscow (in 1903 in the Leontjevskij pereulok) to study the Russian language. Later he ...

Dear forum,

I discovered this site recently and now I am trying to find out more on an electric silver lamp we own. I had a look on the German makers mark and doubt between Gebrueder Deyhle and Gebrueder Kuehn, both from Schaebische Gmuend. Perhaps there are even more similar makers marks? Can ...

Dear Qrt,

Thank you for the time you were willing to devote to this simple coffeespoon. It is nice to know so many details on one of the objects which one has gathered over the years and which are surrounding him every day.

Dear Silverport,

Thank you very much for the additional information.

Dear Qrt,

Thank you for your efforts. I had a closer look and noticed that there is guild in the grooves: probably it was guilded all over and by often polishing most of the guild was removed over the years.
Hope to learn more.............

Best regards,

Dear Qrt,

Here is a better picture of the marks. It looks like the background is guilded, it s not dirt. Our friend told us that she had received the spoon more than twenty years ago from her aunt. To me the Greek letter looks like a "delta".

Dear Qrt,

Thank you for your reply. Approximately three years ago we got it from a friend (she didn't like it) who got it from an aunt. So probably (many) more than five years.

I shall try to clean up the mark and make a new picture (and post it) asap.

Best regards, Niek

Dear forum,

I guess that this teaspoon is made in China. My "gutfeeling" tells me that it is silver, so probably it is not.
Can anyone tell me more concerning this teaspoon? Thank you in advance.
Best regards, Niek

Dear forum,

On your site I found that this spoon is probably Russian silver.
Could anyone tell me more, like period, city, maker etc.?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Dear forum,

I have been searching this site and more on the internet but could not find the marks on this napkin ring. Therefore I assume it is not silver.
Could anyone tell me more concerning these marks?
Thank you in advance,
Best regards, Niek

Beste Silverport,

I assume you just sent me a Private message. Trying to open it, I receved this automated message: "Sorry, your postcount must be 40 or greater in order to send, save, read and reply to your received private messages (PM)."

Or I must post some 30 messages immediately to be able to ...

Beste Silverport,

Thank you for your quick (and early!) reaction. Your greetings are in Dutch: Are you Dutch living in Portugal or Portugese speaking Dutch?
Concerning the napkin ring: I already doubted that they were silver but until I found this forum yesterday I had no "proof". I have a few more ...

Dear Torsten ,
