    This whisk broom is marked sterling but I cannot find any other marks and have not been able to identify the pattern.
    Do you think those are sunflowers?
    Any help identifying the maker and pattern would be very much appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Lovely. It is Art Nouveau.
    Where did you find it? Most countries don't have assay marks, and makers don't always punch their marks on items either.
    No they are not sunflowers, not enough petals. I don't know what they are though, but I'm sure someone does. The smaller ones are lily of the valley, it could be a flower that blooms in the same season.

    Art nouveau. Poppies, I'd think. A popular flower of the era.

    That is beautiful. I believe the larger flowers are anemones.

    I received it as a gift. purchase in in ohio or pennsylvania, i believe.

    I didn't think anemone had pointed petals, but I will search for that. Thanks for the input!
