Waterkettle from Vienna

Post by zilverik »

Hi,

This is a big waterkettle on stove, total weight 2.214 gramms, high 44,5 cm. Marks for Austria. And a Dutch control mark for re-entering the market (ZII)
Makersmark I.F Wrana? Or is the other mark the master? What is that other mark if it is not the master?

Regards,

Zilverik

The "FV" in the rectangle with diagonal corners looks very much like the mark for Ferdinand Vogel of Vienna, who was active from 1901 onwards. I cannot locate any maker named Wrana, who is most likely the retailer.
Hope this helps.

Hell, retailer is J.F. Wrana, a Viennese jeweller, founded in 1894. Check the internet, he is still active. Best wishes, Bahner
