Hello, Krisztián!
Many thanks for the quick response! What is the period of work of this maker? I have some examples of his marks before 1922.
Best regards, Alex.

What proves that his marks from before 1922?
I found his name in the 30' end 40' in the contemporary professional magazines
Best regards!

I think there is some misunderstandings.
The Diana head hallmark was used from 1867 to 1922 in Austria, and 1937 in Hungary.
So yor items could make before and after 1922 too.
So if you find works from Horváth Henrik with the oldest Diana head hallmark that means made before 1937.
Best regards!
