Author	Topic: Silver scenes, Denmark? maker?
jtrider Posts: 2 Registered: Mar 2005	posted 04-04-2005 12:38 PM Don't know what these items are made of? probably plate. Would like to find out more, to collect more! I've had the comb for a long time (it was my grandmothers), It always looked like the Denmark stuff, but not marked Denmark and seemed better quality and has hallmarks. I liked it and kept it. Recently I acquired a similar container that has similar or the same marks. The container is marked on the rim, D(tiny star)E inside a flower or sun, then some shape that looks like a house maybe with something in it?, then HH in a rectangle with pointed out ends, then 90( or a little 0 with something under it and next to a big 0? or g0?) Also hidden in the picture is the last 3 symbols. The comb has a mark of the house, then HH in a rectangle with pointed out ends, then 90, or g0? Any known maker or date on these items? Were these forerunners to the popular Denmark stuff? Any info appreciated, Jan IP: Logged

The picture of the comb is too wide, and must be downsized. The fourth link should not have a space after the first [img], but it is a dead link anyway. IP: Logged

ozfred Posts: 87 Registered: Sep 2002	posted 04-04-2005 10:29 PM I understand the maker's mark is that of the Dutch coffee house of Douwe Egbert. The other modern mark indicates that the piece is silver plated. IP: Logged
