Post by miskey »

Wondered if anybody recognized these marks from two silver candlesticks. Thought they might be from switzerland?

Hi,
Very distinctive ``n`` for Ludwig Neresheimer & Co: Hanau, end of 19th century (already recognized by oel). In the mark bellow it`s accompanied by Reichsmark and ``800``

(Neresheimer & Co used very wide range of marks and combinations).
I think there is French Weevil mark, too. (The image in the middle).
Oel has explained it here: scroll down to the middle.

Could this mark have been struck upside down?

A trade mark of the retailer perhaps, just guessing, the eagle(?) incorporates the letter 'M'?
