We have several pieces of this pattern and I am unable to find any information on similar pieces,the country of origin,the maker or the pattern name.

My wife calls it Witch Silver. Any information that you can provide would be helpful. Both pieces are marked the same with 800.

They're 800 silver from Java, Indonesia. The finials depict Javanese shadow puppets. Usually sold to tourists, some of them have lovey piercing and engraving, I think your fish slice, in particular, is quite nicely done.

Thanks Cheryl, I knew you would know what they were just form the number of replies that had you name on them. We have inherited a large number of pieces, and while I have identified most of the pieces, some such as this were giving me fits.
