[QUOTE="Wolfrott, post: 251926, member: 1711"]I have this hallmarked, celluloid & sterling silver letter opener - the hallmarks have me stumped. It's 25cm long, 2.5cm wide, the handle is 10cm long. One says 900 which is 900th sterling, (I thought it read 800 but with a 50x loupe it definitely says 900) but the second mark says 875 which also means sterling, and I cannot ID the blob next to it - is it a dog's head, a crowned head? I've tried researching and found this [URL='https://www.rubylane.com/item/1061514-2011-0790/830-Silver-Horse-Celluloid-Vintage-Letter?utm_source=addthis_addthis-service-code']identical horse version[/URL] that looks like the same maker, but they haven't detailed who it is or what the hallmark is.
