Hi all, has anyone the knowledge to identify the following makers mark?
I have a heavy cigarette case of which is marked 925 S.J.
I understand it's sterling silver, but have no idea of the maker of the age, any help would be great, thanks for any replies.

you dont read marks correct - 925 S - should be read as 1 mark, 925 is sterling and S =silver. So 925S is the silvermark.
Then something else - and I cannot read that. It is not a single letter but two letters in combination.
From this I would say Norway, but a guess at present. Try to reas the two letters or try to take a better picture. Also picture of item could help confirm origin (Norway?)

I would tend to disagree with Hose_dk. The mark appears to be as initially described. I doubt this piece will prove ascribable without further information.

marks are in my oppinion 925S
and JT or JF - as it says JT outside the mark I would suggest JT
JF could be Jørgen Frandsen - Vejle 1948 - 1973
JT could be 1 of 3 - or rather one of the two active in the 50ties
J.T.................................Johs. Torlyk - Copenhagen 1956 - 1968
J.T.................................Jørgen Thomasen - Vedbæk 1973 - ?
J.T.................................Johannes Eli M.Torlyk - Copenhagen 1944 - 1954
I dont know their names - or marks, but the graficcould be Danish as I suggest here.
