[QUOTE="Lecollectionneur, post: 408274, member: 8569"]If you look closely on the pictures, this tray seems to be repolished, all details are worn, and it's typical from something replated, in Belgium I can't find something similar for silver, but if I translate : Les ouvrages argentés portent deux poinçons : 1°Celui de maitre; 2°le chiffre de la charge de poids d'argent déposé. The plated works carry two hallmarks: 1°that of master; the figure of the weighty load of put down silver. The belgian silversmith hallmark has the form of a barrel normally but the french hallmarks have always something in the cartouche with the initials for the maker. That seems to be more correspondant, what do you think ?[/QUOTE]
