Hello all,

Here is an oval salt frame with an odd continental mark. The piece is decorated with four faces of long haired men, which seem to me to have a 17th C style. Aside from an assayer's zig-zag gauge, there is just this one mark on the lower edge. There are certainly Dutch and Hanau products in this style, but I suspect this is of its period. Any ideas as to origin and age?
