Hallo,

Today my latest purchase arrived in the mail :), it was a lucky buy on an online Dutch marketplace. It seems to be an early 18th century candlestick from Dusseldorf. Unfortunately I can`t identify the datemark and makersmark as i don`t have literature on Dusseldorf hallmarks.
Could anyone tell what year this candle stick was made in (i believe ca. 1710-1716?) and who made it?
(My earlier posting made on my phone did not have the embedded pictures, sorry for the inconvinience)

Unknown Makersmark SJ maybe? (Unknown to me... hope you can help)

Maker is not sure. In Clasen it is no578, Johann Schleuter
Letter C could ca. 1710, but I am not sure

Many thanks for your reply. It`s nice to put a name to it.
Online I found some other items from Johann Schleuter with a B for 1708/1709 in a similar cartouche/outline.
So I guess C would be 1709/1710. For now, case closed.
