Hi and welcome to the forum.
I don't know what happened to your image but I suspect you are trying to link to a picture on your own device. You must upload your picture to a photo hosting site and link to that.
https://postimages.org is recommended as an image host (after uploading your picture/s click 'Share', then copy and paste the 'Hotlink for forums' code to embed your images). Do not use Photobucket or Dropbox.

hello again, I can't insert a photo, it's a bit complicated, I will try to do it in a short time, I will try to describe the hallmark in words:
IZ (A ship symbol K) (A ship symbol K) IZ

Hi there,
Your forks are from Corfu!
There is still research being done, so not much around, but they were made in Corfu during the British occupation (1815-1864).
Is there any crest or engravings?
Great forks!

Thanks for the information, I spent hours searching on the Internet. The forks are smooth without engraving. Do you have a reliable source?

Not formally published that I know of. Knowledge through some dealers and some info on social media. So maybe should have said attributed to Corfu. :/
