Hello,

Not sure from which country this small bowl / dish came from
It`s about 9,5 cm across and 1,5cm high. At has two marks which seem not that old BR in an oval and a mark i can`t read well



I bought it really cheap again online. I thought i was buying a Djokja item or a Hanau 19th century imitation of some sort, the online pictures weren`t that good. But maybe somebody can shine a light on these silvermarks. When cleaning the dish I found brunishing marks on the flat parts on the inside, not something I`d expect on a Hanau piece. Maybe somebody recognizes one of this marks and can help me where to look for more information.

Hi,
It is Hungary mark (dog`s head and number 3 in front for 800 fineness).
The mark was used 1937 - 1966. But having in mind the situation after WWII, I suppose the bowl was made before the war, at least that makes sense.
Regards

Thank you so much for your fast response. Nice to know where it was made. Now the Hunt for finding siversmith BS starts. And i should start making sweatmeats.

I asked a friend.
The maker is Bókai Broncigy Rezső from Budapest.
Established the workshop in 1941, ends in 1949 (nationalized)
Best regards!
