    Added these 2 to the Christofle collection. One very worn, the other in great condition.

    3rd mark is the scales mark and 4th is the Christofle mark. I thought the 2nd mark was the Christofle chess horse, but it isn't very clear, and now I'm not sure (today it looked more like a 4 to me ...). Does Christofle use the horse and scales together?

    Thanks. I already knew about this site, but as I thought it had both marks, the site wasn't of much help as it doesn't mention anything about the use of various marks together.
    But, that doubt can be ignored, as I took another look at the marks just now, with better light (despite the cloudy and rainy day...), and it's now clear that the second mark is a 4. I assume that's the "thickness" of the plating (4 microns)
