    That must be the owners name. Is this from Denmark?

    Hi - please give the size, as already requested, a side view (looks like a pedestal base?), and show any marks. Not that Lohengrin wouldn't have been a popular motif at the time, but why are you dating it so specifically to "1885's'? The pricked engraving and name would suggest that it was personalized in either Norway or Denmark...

    Lohengrin in the center?

    Scooped by Cheryl, no surprise there.
