Silver knife, Amsterdam, Coutrier?

Post by Vantlicht »

This silver knife handle is marked with the citymark of Amsterdam and I think the makersmark of Coutrier.
But I am not sure. Curious for your opinion.

The scallop maker's mark could be for Cornelis Coutrier, registered in Amsterdam 1730-1749. He used three types of scallop marks

Objects marked with a master mark and with Amsterdam ​t​own mark, without ​y​ear letter were probably made between​ circa 17​1​0 and 1734​.
