Have a beautiful autumn day!
Can someone please help me with the markings on this salt cellar?
Thank you

Re: Salt cellar
Hello
It is raining where I am also.
To add to oel’s excellent information, the maker of your salt cellar is Johann Jacob Ullmann, using a mark he registered in 1749. His later mark was registered in 1763.
