Dear All,

I have a set of triplex sugar tongs by Carl Gustav Hallberg.

However I can't see any assay marks, so was wondering if they were silver or plate.

Does all Silver have to have an assay mark?

Any help would be welcome.

Regards

T

Hi,
As far as I know the Swedish hallmarking system is organized on a compulsory base.

Your tongs are not silver but possibly plated.
