Hello Dendriet

This is one of the marks of Boyer-Callot. See here

Also use the search function for a number of posts about this maker.

The style of your sugar tongs is 19th C Romantic.

Regards

#JayT,


I had looked this up before, but did not know where I had written it
I start to doubt myself.
Short memory.

The advantage of a bad memory is that one can enjoy the same good things more than once.
Thank you for having found my memories, JayT. :) :)
