Hello,

I would appreciate any help in identifying the marks on this silver gilt & agate dish. One mark looks a bit like a bunch of grapes, the other.....really can't say. I was hoping it would look familiar to some one here.

Thank you!

Hello Anna,

Looking at your your images I believe could be German of good quality and made in Hanau.
Please check;Gebrüder Neumann even perhaps Neresheimer & Sohne

But let us wait on other reactions.

Oel,

Thank you for your quick reply! Most appreciated!
I had thought possibly Hanau, but couldn't find the mark exactly. There aren't many pieces like this to compare it to either(on the internet). The most similar I have found though were said to be German or Austrian. If any one else has thoughts I would love to hear them.

Best to you,
