According to family legend, these were brought over to the U.S. from Hungary by my ancestors around 1900. That's all we know about them. Any help deciphering where these came from would be much appreciated. I searched extensively online and didn't find any reference to the marks.

The candlesticks were produced in Berlin, Germany in the nineteenth century.

Thanks -- do you know any more than that, like the name of the silver maker?

on your photo there is only the town mark of Berlin with the letter K indicating the time around 1840 and the letter B for the assay master. There should be another mark for the maker. Look carefully if you find one.
