Hello!
I believe it is from Stuttgart, the maker is Eduard Foehr (Föhr), circa 1840-1860.
Regards.

Hello, agree, hallmark of Stuttgart and Foehr as the maker. Foehr was founded in 1801 by Andreas Ludwig Foehr, Eduard (d. 1904) did not take over until 1858. So this might be from his time or before his time. Regards, Bahner
