I got a piece of silverplate at an Estate Sale and can't find any information on it, It is marked Handwrought Silver on Dopper and signed Hans Grag or Gvag. The hallmark is the letter c on each side with a tree in an oval in the center.

Sounds as if this is a silverplate piece made by Cellini Craft of Chicago. There was a question in the forums two months ago about whether or not Cellini made silverplate items. Sounds like you have found an example. See related post below.

You read my mind! We would love to see a photo of the piece and the marks.

You can email us the photo and we will put it up for you or I am sure if you read the UBB code page about images, you can do it yourself. See: http://www.smpub.com/ubb/ubbcode.html
