Last week I found this sweet petite sugar and creamer with under tray at a local thrift shop. The pieces are in lovely condition and I think the interior of the sugar and creamer is gilt. The mark is back to babk B's separated by a finial.


Bohrmann started in Frankfurt am Main in 1871 and in 1894 it changed its name to "Fabrik versilberter Tafelger�te B. Bohrmann Nachfolger" and the firm lasted to the 1920's. It seems that the mark on the sugar and creamer is from the 1871-1894 period. Could anyone confirm that? The style of the sugar and creamer with the sort of wave motif seems appropriate for that period, but maybe someone has more info about German silverplate and its stylistic changes and progression?

Thanks for any help! Kelly
