Conjoint matrimonial arms?

Post by Swineherd »

Can someone enlighten me further? I understand that my set of 12 spoons and forks has been made by Victor Meyer, silversmith to the imperial court in Vienna and the Arms might be that of jewish plutocrats of the time: Rothschilds and deWorms families.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

I think a larger, sharp close-up of the coat-of-arms will be required if anyone is to help.

What does the motto read?

Motto: nothing I can decypher but it is v.small and might be in hebrew?
I will have a go at those Arms again tomorrow, with better light to hand.

In case anybody interested,still, the solution to the puzzle found in old heraldic archives(see above): The culprit to sell the family's heirloom was Lord Pirbight, bon vivant and a well known character on the London scene some half a century ago. Grandson of Nathaniel Rothschild. The Arms are indeed those of deWorms and Rothschilds families.
