Hi,
I have a lovely pair of French silver fruit salad servers with a nice clear Minerva mark and maker's mark but I cannot find the maker, any ideas out there?
Many thanks
Monte

Hi Monte,
It would appear from your images that only the ferules are silver. Is this where the Minerva mark is to be found?

Hi Trev,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, the minerva mark is only on the ferules. Any ideas on the maker?
Cheers
Monte

Hi Trev,
Thanks for the reply and I hope this is the correct way to contact you. The Minerva mark is only on the ferules and I suspect the other end (I do not know the technical term) are gilded base metal. Have you any ideas on the maker?
Cheers
Monte
