[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 251541, member: 2844"]The sterling silver mark is probably post-colonial. I've just checked my silver sites, the style is either Burmese or eastern Bengali (Calcutta and further east). Seems to be difficult to pinpoint, because it doesn't have any of the other significant decorations which silver from the area usually has. The term Asian Colonial silver is probably best, but do mention it could be post-colonial.[/QUOTE]
