Unknown marks help needed

Post by mk209 »

Really unsure of this dessert spoon, I don't recognise the marks. It only has 2 marks one being 'HE' in script and the other is a shield. Maybe the crests will help as the style of crown is very distinct, not like a British one.

If anyone could tell me where this spoon is from it'd be great, thanks,

Matt.

The crests, however, are very English.

Maybe Middleton and Bentley?:

I would think this is perhaps one of the easier ones for the right person to track down, a marriage between a Middleton and a Bentley (if indeed this is right families, as the above is only offered as a possibility) with maybe a Swiss connection?

I'll move the topic to the Family Crests section of the forum.

Thankyou both so much that's great! My first Swiss spoon and an interesting one too with regards to the crests.
