Depose just means the design has been officially registered. It would help to see the other mark right way round.

As I thought. That's Giovanna Di Rosa's site. She finds, & evidently can afford, beautiful things. Sometimes I see things she has offered on...
It is an absolutely gorgeous cameo. Think is was listed on eBay & I was in the bidding, but just went too high for me. Where did you find it?...
My mother had a small book, think title was just How to Take Good Pictures, put out by Kodak, & you can see it's influence on how she did family...
I'm seeing matte on the decorative bit & shiny elsewhere. Could be same material, different finishes, maybe. It just seems too different from...
Anyone else think it's a crown over the number?
In this case it may be wrong to assume it is an assay mark rather than a maker's mark.
I think I'm seeing 858, but is a bit off for any fineness system I know, close to, but not equal to 21K gold. I usually find that when I can't...
Happy Sunday, kyra. Can you explain how you are using 'French jet'? It seems to be applied, rightly or wrongly, to many materials. Which one do...

We're just having a little Sunday morning girl talk. As soon as someone finds an interesting cameo, we'll be back on track. Think of this as...
Looks like there's a theme of different types of vessels?
I think you are seeing undercutting when I am not. You have the much better eye, & eyes, I can easily be misreading the photo. Presence or...
It would be an understatement to say I have a dysregulated sleep pattern. I can easily sleep 10 hours many days, but don't consider it glorious,...
The 9k argues strongly for Britain. No Indian jeweller would even consider that real gold. Visually, the claws are very realistic. Suspect mold...
Missed perhaps as much as the first hour, so might have missed a couple of these. Do recall 'Did you guys ever watch the show?', although I may...
Separate names with a comma.
