    Very damaged enamel on this poor little critter!
    The hammered silver and the blue enamel back make me suspect James Fenton to be the maker.
    No marks, 4.3 by 4.5 centimeters.
    Kyratised as seen on pic #1 and #2
    As bought on pics 3 and 4

      Another wonderful job Kyra!!
    10. Jewels1900 Jewels1900, 9 years ago
      Hi Kyra. Nice job as always. I don't think Fenton made this type of jewel. Also, even though they didn't mark everything with the JF makers mark, I think they did assay all their silver so it all has a hallmark.

      It is a pretty nice one with the mother of pearl in the middle. They are making repros now which aren't nearly as nice.
    11. kyratango kyratango, 9 years ago
      Hi Jewels1900! I thought Fenton because of the "bubbles" silver work. It was only visible when I polished the tarnished damaged areas!

      Agree This kind of thick multicolor is not Fenton. No place for hallmarks, there is enamel underneath too!

      Thank you for your compliment :-))

      Many thanks too to the 16 dragonfly lovers!
