[01-1326]

I have some Swedish sterling flatware marked with the letters C.G.F. in a cartouche. I am unable to find out who the manufacturer is. I believe this silver was made in the 1930's. I would love to know who made this silver.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

How do you know it is Swedish? Can you post pics of the the marks and an example from the set?

I was told by the family-they are from Sweden and inherited the silver from the family.

It has a Swedish mark F8 that I looked up. Indicates it was made in 1932.

I am thinking about buying it, but don't have any pics.

It has a cartouch with three crowns in addition to the letters.
