help with Sterling hallmark - looked everywhere!

[helskitchen]

hi, first time at the forum ;) I love researching hallmarks and have used three different sites to find this one, but to no avail. This is a sterling stamp holder, unknown period. Hard hallmark because it has not recognizable letters or symbols.

I also can't get my photos to load directly from Picasa into this post (error message says "it was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image)...only links

Welcome to the forum. Your trademark looks like it could be a chattered example of the mark used by Thomae. Take look here and see what you think: http://www.925-1000.com/americansilver_T.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
