<p>[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 340606, member: 111"]Most likely dates to the first quarter of the 20th century, not Scandinavian, I'd think German too, though Austria and Switzerland are also possibilities, but would more likely find official marks on those two, and the fineness more likely indicated as '0.935' on Swiss. This set, in a different color, bears a maker's mark, I don't recognize it, but with the nice enamel work, might be one of the numerous Pforzheim makers of that era (the seller calls it a ladies set, but believe it was more likely intended as a pocket dressing set for men, the brush for clothes and hats): <a href="https://www.rubylane.com/item/424710-01271203/Antique-935-Ladies-Comb-Set-Silver" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.rubylane.com/item/424710-01271203/Antique-935-Ladies-Comb-Set-Silver" rel="nofollow">https://www.rubylane.com/item/424710-01271203/Antique-935-Ladies-Comb-Set-Silver</a></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
