Hi, dear sirs.

I have one item. I know this item was made in Italia in the city Vicenza and after was imported in Holland. Could you please help me to define the Italian silversmith. If I don’t mistake, the stamp with letter «MO?. DEP» is Italian marker’s mark (unfortunately I cannot read third letter). Thank you.

The "Mod Dep" marking is "modèle deposé" (in French), that is, the indication that the design has been copyrighted.

To identify the silversmith, you will need to look up number 54 in the register for Vicenza. I'm not sure whether this is easily available online, though.
