Paul Colarik Posts: 16 Registered: Feb 2004	posted 03-25-2004 07:32 PM Hello...I've acquired a piece of flatware that I believe to be Danish but I'd love to confirm that and identify the maker. Thank you for your help. IP: Logged
Patrick Vyvyan Posts: 640 Registered: May 2003	posted 03-25-2004 07:57 PM Your piece is indeed Danish, assayed in Copenhagen (the mark with the towers). To the right of this is the mark of the assay master, Christian Fr. Heise, who worked from 1904 to 1932. There may be a small number beneath the Copenhagen tower mark which is the year. Sorry, don't know the maker! Are the initials HSO or BSO ? [This message has been edited by Patrick Vyvyan (edited 03-25-2004).] IP: Logged

Use a good magnifier to compare it to the marks shown on this earlier post. Click here! (Georg Jensen Hallmarks) IP: Logged
