Volpone:
I cannot find information on Jens Andersen and jewelry making. As this appears to be an old piece (and not silverware related) I'm wondering if you could help me out a bit more. I'd like to know a little about this artist and possibly an approx. date for this piece. "Jens Andersen" is not listed under the Danish marks at 925.1000.com. If you cannot assist please let me know. Thanks in advance! Sparks.
