Demitasse Spoons - need help to identify mark

Post by citronx »

Here are 2 of 3 demitasse spoons I inherited and no little about. The mark clearly shows an '800' but the mark to the left of this is an image that appears to be a filled in circle with a curved line coming off of the right side. I believe this is an intaglio mark where the mark is within a circle that does not quite fit on the spoon. These could date back to the 1700's.
Thanks, Chris

Hi,
These are 20th century German, I think they are in the Hildesheimer Rose pattern. Unfortunately, the mark image you have provided gives no hope of identifying the maker.

Hi,

this are "Hildesheimer Rose"-Spoons, probably for Mokka and made in Hanau.

There is no makers-mark on it, just the 800 for the silverpurity. The circle you can see is just part of the decoration.

Regards Johanna
