Help ID 800 Silver mark

[carla21]

Hi all!

I am not positive if this is a German silver serving piece or not but it was as close as I could get. Any help is always greatly appreciated.

Many thanks!

Carla



this marking is rather similar, are they the same manufacturer? What does Met 60 stand for?



Thank you!!!!!

MET could mean METAL (low silver or silverplate) - in Austria
In Germany are 40,60,90,100 for silverplate

Hello, this is Polish silver and Polish plate. Maker is HeFra (Henneberg Fraget) in Warszawa, still active. The "Met" has to be used on plated articles to tell that it is not silver. Best wishes, Bahner
