Re: Need Help w/Maker's Mark on Poss. Scandinavian Brooch

If this is from Bergan, Norway then it could be for Einar Modahl who was born in Bergan and worked for Marius Hammer as a journeyman. He moved to Oslo around 1920 where he worked and then established his workshop. See also http://www.925-1000.com/no_modahl.html" onclick="window.open(this.h...

Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

Some records show David-Andersen to be a mark for the David Andersen (now David-Andersen) company used after 1925 to today, but others believe it was possibly used after 1941 when the company David Andersen (from 1876-) changed its name to David-Andersen. Maybe someone from Norway can help. Regardin...

Re: Help with the maker and date of Viking salts with GH 925

Sam, I do not believe the maker was Gustav Fredrik Hellstrømk as GH is not the registered mark for G. Hellstrøm & Co . It may have been his father Gustav Wilhelm Hellstrøm from Stavanger. I do not have enough history about the father as GFH changed the name of the company to G. Hellstrøm &am...

Re: Please Help me Identify these Spoons

The mark on the left appears to be David Andersen. I would assume the 3 crowns (swedish) would mean that David Andersen of Norway made the spoons and they were imported to a swedish jeweler for sale.

Re: Norwegian marks

Just an update on Ole Nicolai Olberg. He was born in 1875 and passed away in 1934. Ole was a known enamellist as he worked for M. Hammer in Bergen. I do not know much about his son Birger, yet. Birger may have just been a jeweler.

Re: mysterious silver-gilt enameled plate mark

The right mark is for David-Andersen the firm founded by David Andersen in the mid 1800's and still active today with DA or David-Andersen marks. The right mark is for 925 (silver content) and typically for these early pieces the S used to mark silver was put on its side. 925 and S for silver. This ...

Re: Viking ship necklace 925s need maker

Appears to be Norway or Denmark. They both commonly used 925S and 830S. I also make out the letter N not M, but you can see better then me.
