Repousse Scallop Dish -- Need a Little Help!

Post by neurorocker »

This attractive dish has an unknown hallmark. Can't seem to locate this one, though I found another example of it here:


Anyone recognize? Many thanks for considering.

Does anyone else think that second mark could be:

Г42

The Г is a cyrillic character.

Thanks again!

Very limited time-wise, but to my eye, everything about this piece, including the marks, looks Greek - after the fineness, the maker's mark (perhaps incorporating 'ΑΙΛ' or 'ΑΙΔ'), followed by their registry number, which appears to be 'Γ.42' or maybe 'Γ.12'.

Hm. Could be. I have no experience with Greek silver. Can anyone second that? I appreciate it, Cheryl.
