I couldn't find anything about the marking, it makes me think they are handmade for a palace because they are marked with a crown, if anyone knows more, any information is welcome, thanks!
recently purchased from a private collection PARIS FRANCE
no silver mark handmade but tested by a professional jeweler and conforms to 800/1000 frequency silver Very good condition - please keep in mind that you are buying an item over 100 years old and there will be traces of a past life!!!!
Please be sure to view all photos carefully as they are included as part of the item description!
I sell antique and vintage collectible stuff - unique items that have history, and may show signs of this - it's part of their charm. I try to describe any obvious faults as truthfully as I can. However, as most of my items are 100 years old, they will often bear the traces of a previous life. Please think carefully about bidding if you are looking for a pristine item that is as new. My passion is for beautiful antique stuff and quirky vintage items with a gently faded grandeur, so do consider this before deciding to bid.
