    I'm sure you missed new mysterious "etruscan urn" maker's mark posts ;-D

    Here is the latest one!

    The brooch / pendant weights approximately 9.4 grams & w

    Worn as a pendant the piece measures approximately 1 3/8 inches - 3.5 cm in drop length measuring from the top of suspension loop down & measures approximately 1 inch - 2.5 cm width measured across.

    The mark on this one looks more like a "flaming pot"...

    Mystery continues with no answers from the forums or Pforzheim Museum...

      Puzzling! Such lovely jewellery, not totally rare (you have found a few bits) and you can't find info....
    7. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Yes Karen, I can't figure out why such a prolific maker is still unidentified...
      Thanks for your interest :-D

      Many thanks to all of you, 13 mysterious maker lovers ;-))

      It's a beautiful pendant/brooch! Have you tried finding an authoritative source on marks and asking? Is there some way of contacting someone from a museum who might know?
    9. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Hi Katherine :-)
      It seems many others collectors are trying to identify this mark... Robin Deutsch, who identified Knoll & Pregizer, told that to someone on CW (can't remember the member!) who is in contact with her!
      I sent an Email to the Pforzheim Schmuck (jewelry) Museum with pics and.... no answer!
      Thanks for your comment and interest, my friend :-)

      Very welcome, I hope you find an answer. Try another museum or authority on silver marks, someone has to know.

      This is real pretty kyra! I thought cactus in a pot. Then and more likely, could that represent a horse head with a flowing mane? It's Possible, right?
    14. kyratango kyratango, 7 years ago
      Ha Sue, you're the first to see a horse head! I tried too the cactus in pot or planted pot, with no result :-)
      Thank you for your input, appreciation and love !
