    I have a piece of fine German porcelain that’s had a silver rim added to it. Presumably this happened well after it left the factory. This was a pretty common practice in Europe during the 18th and 19th century. They did it on continental wares and on Chinese porcelains. It could be just ornamental or it could be done to cover up damage in some cases. I find it a really cool combination of materials and skills. I had a fantastic 18th century rose mandarin teapot with Dutch silver fittings once that I ended up selling. Anywho I’ve got this new piece which I’ll refrain from posting a photo of for now. I’m curious about the makers mark on the silver portion though. I can’t make heads nor tails of anything on the mark. Doesn’t appear to me a hallmark, just a makers mark but I could be wrong. Any silver folks see anything they recognize here? C8BE382C-F303-43EA-80FF-32ECF7371CFB.jpeg 306833DE-C4CF-4B18-9BC4-794B7FA670FE.jpeg
