[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9020769, member: 2844"]As the others said, the mark is a maker's mark, not a hallmark. It reminds me of German maker's marks, but that doesn't mean it is definitely German. It isn't a Chinese style mark, not even like the ones that use Latin script. The style is Chinoiserie, Western made but copying, or inspired by, Chinese art.[/QUOTE]
