I have this cruet with an hallmark identification i'm having a lot of dificulties understanding where or who it is from.
Does the hallmark show where it is from, who made it and when?

You might say it follows the form of some Hanau (German) pseudos, which are themselves borrowed from older European marks. But it may take some searching to reveal the true identity of who placed the mark and when. The silver standard remains up for guesswork at this point.
