Beautiful Mexican Sterling Picture Frame

Post by ike »

Can anyone identify this maker's mark?
The workmanship is very similar to Matilde Eugenia Poulat (MATL) or Ricardo Salas.
but the marks show otherwise.

Sure..
Unfortunately not MATL though it has similarities.

Maker is unknown. CEL, pg 217 of Little Book.

It goes on and says it has a Taxco stamp of me-02. Wh8ch is on this stamp.

Me-02 is unidentified but listed in the book.

Love it.. good luck,

Evil,

Thank you for your update on this item.

I do have a 2001 version of The Little Book of Mexican Silver Trade and Hallmarks, however my book only goes up to pg 148.

Do you have a newer version? ... not that it matters much since the picture frame is still unidentified.

Evil,
Looked at my library, and I do have the later version of the Little Book, however on pg 217 I did not see any entry for "CEL"
