Austrian tea set
Posted: Thu Oct 16, 2014 4:04 am
I found these two pieces of a tea set .

They carry the hallmark of Vienna, badly struck, in which you can read well the last digit (8), but there is not the one of the tens.
They also carry a mark STM, which perhaps could help to indicate a more precise date.

Can anyone help me to date these pieces ?
I would also like to know if this type of decoration is common in Austrian silver objects.
Thanks
Amena
