Identifying Fraget Pattern Pre WWII

Post by courtneyk »

Greetings, all!
I am inquiring about a family heirloom, a set of Fraget silver plate that was carried out of the Ukraine by my husband's great-grandparents (a Priest and his wife) at the end of WWII. Family lore places their purchase of the set to the 1900-1910 years, in Austria or Prague. The marking on the reverse reads "FRAGET BM PLAQUE". The service has been divided between the children and grandchildren in recent years. I am trying to find additional pieces to make our portion a little more complete. I've attached a picture of the pattern. I've looked at the Hefra website, sent an inquiry to them, and also researched this forum for any pertinent information. If you very knowledgeable people don't know what this is, I'm out of luck! Auction sites have not a single like item, nor do replacements.
Warm regards,

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

An image of the marks would help.

This post explains the meaning of the 'BM' lettering: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic ... 88&p=55084" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
