Hello, I have a Japanese silver bowl with the pure silver character mark upon it. There is a second mark, I assume the makers mark, please could any let me know any information they have about it? The mark is on a bowl. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Best Wishes,

JB

Hi,

For me, your images are not showing.

The characters on top are 純銀 - pure silver (but it could be sterling silver, or higher)

銀 - silver
純 - pure

The lower group is likely the maker.

Please upload pics of the item. Makes it much more interesting for viewers.
