Betty Dear, there for sure were made by an at that time almost retired Armenian jeweler on my private order. he also made a beautiful cookie dish in the shape of a bunch of grapes with vine. Unfortunately I sold that one so cannot show you. They are not marked as that was not done until the fam. of Savadian started to mark the silver as their customers were many foreigners and they liked to have their silver marked. I think now it is more common to mark larger silver items.
Very cute pieces, Ingrid. I love them!
wonderful with the Lion of Judah relief, it Looks great! You still have so many fantastic items !!! My God, what a collection you have!
Thank you Eva, and such a joy to see them once in a while. But I am now also willing to sale. and just keep a basic collection.
I love these, Ingrid. As a result of your discussion of Armenian jewellers, and because I wanted to have some little bells copied, I found there were a number in London and there is an association of Armenian jewellers who are located in many places all over the world.
