[QUOTE="Finnclouds, post: 9718158, member: 84680"]Thank you, Sherlock! :-) Patience is not a virtue of mine; I didn’t go down far enough to see there was an index. I found another source that claimed to list all Swedish silversmiths, but they all seemed to be from the 20th C and their search was lousy so I gave up. I wonder how much the maker’s name actually matters to buyers since they don’t tend to be household names — the approximate age would matter more to me, at least. And that’s my excuse for giving up so easily… :-)[/QUOTE]
