Hello. Does anyone have any information on who this might be? There is also a letter P mark, that indicates that it was made in 1849. Thanks in advance!
Unknown silver box maker (CM?)
Re: Unknown silver box maker (CM?)
To me it seems to read the maker's mark CM above 78 for Cornelis Monteban, registered in the city of Schoonhoven, 1843 till he died on 20-5-1880. He employed an engraver for some time (mechanical Rose Engine or ‘Decorative Lathe’ operator).
