Identity of HNOSS or SSONH mark on modernist Mexico Sterling bowl

This 20” x9” modernist bowl has a somewhat worn mark on it that I am hoping a Forum member will recognize. Thanks in advance for your help. MJ

Clover or club-shaped hallmark on Concho belt

Can anyone in the forum identify this hallmark? I am certain that the belt is sterling or high grade solid silver, but it is not marked as such. The belt belonged to my Mother, and I was told that her brother bought it for her in the Western United States, possibly during WW II. I know that the belt...

Crouch & Hannam 1793 Repurposed Oval Salver

Dear Forum Members, I was able to identify the hallmarks on the back of this large 15" x20" salver using the 925/1000 English Hallmarks site. Under the hallmarks, I can see very faint engraved letters and numbers, which I tried to reproduce for the forum in a drawing. The underside center ...

Re: Russian Silver Alexander Tillander Mirror with Crest

Thank you so much for the information. I have spent hours and hours online trying to find a similar monogram. I have also searched for a hand mirror that is similar to this one, ( a ball and ring finial for hanging, plus small silver screws along the sides that hold the piece together.) I am really ...

Re: Russian Silver Alexander Tillander Mirror with Crest

Hi, Sorry-I plead ignorance! We have not done a post for many years, and when I hit preview, all of the pictures seemed to show up fine. We are in the process of trying to re-size the images. My Mother told that me that the hand mirror and the frame went together, but I realize that this is not reli...

Re: Russian Silver Alexander Tillander Mirror with Crest

HI-The mirror was purchased together as a set with a matching picture frame that does have hallmarks. The frame and a picture of the hallmarks are listed in a separate posting on this site. I do realize that I can't be completely sure that the two pieces go together, but I would bet that they do. If...

Whose mark? Surveyor’s tripod or artist easel or telescope?

I have a pair of dual candle holders with silver ducks set on pink marble. The base part of each flower pod is marked with 800 and another mark that I cannot identify. Any idea as to what this mark is — makers mark or assayers mark, and who the maker might be? Thanks! http://i54.tinypic.com/i21vzn.j...
