Good morning
I ask the forum for help in identifying these punches for this little milk and coffee pot: They are about 4-5 inch tall (I do not know what they are so small)
They were bought in Italy, even if they are small, they are heavy, and in style they seem to be Empire.
Thanks to those who want to give me directions
Thanks

There is always confusion when two items are posted at the same time.
Actually, ``chalice and pellets`` used by J.D. Schleissner & Söhne is on coffee pot ; compare with s 449 in the link above.
Another mark is s 455
