Hello. Any ideas who this maker (IV W+) might be? Thank you in advance.
Re: Unknown maker
IVW+ is the maker's mark of Jacob van Wijk Sr., registered in Amsterdam from 1819/1846
Year letter G for 1841.
Jacob van Wijk sr is a well-known, excellent Amsterdam silversmith of silver sewing utensils, silver flatware and so called silver bar baskets. From 1843 he also worked for A. Bonebakker & Zoon in Amsterdam. In 1846 he hands over the company to his son Jacob van Wijk junior.
