Good evening everyone. My name is Johan Derkesen. I'm from the Netherlands, but I live in Germany. recently I've become quite a few items (old and older). I'd like to post some of them here in order to find out what they are. The first one is a cake shovel. I found this: "WMF.N" with "M" and "F" letters glued together. Some marks from this group are rare/very rare. But this isn't quite the same as on my shovel. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF) With the added N on the end - Nickle Silver (Which is Nickle Alloy, no silver) Hopefully someone will correct me if I am wrong.
No need to correct you, desperate! Just to give back up, here's a good page about WMF silverplate marks. Although the WMFN itself isn't illustrated, the N appended to the initials does in fact stand for Nickel Silver. http://www.silvercollection.it/WMF.html
Okay great stuff! That helps. Can anyone put a year or decade on it or maybe the deco style (or how do you call that)?
