Author	Topic: Mystery jugendstil maker's marks
Bigbillcurry Posts: 8 Registered: Jan 2016	posted 01-27-2016 09:29 AM Hi, I collect turn of the century German silver brooches and I purchased these two. The cut out one is probably earlier and looks almost Austrian to me and is marked 830. The square brooch is marked 935. They have the same maker's mark of AF which appears clearer on the earlier brooch. I have not had any success on the internet identifying the maker and would appreciate any information. Thanks IP: Logged

Bigbillcurry Posts: 8 Registered: Jan 2016	posted 01-31-2016 07:26 AM Yes, looking at the maker's mark it could be AMF, I will see if I can find any manufacturers with those initials, thanks. IP: Logged
