[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 407959, member: 2844"]Welcome to the forum, .Julia. I'm with Fid, the mark of Mainz, a well-known German silver manufacturing town. Precious metal objects made in Mainz, including jewellery, are usually marked with the 'Mainz Wheel' town mark. I like sectioned orange btw.;) In Germany the silver content .925, sterling silver, was mostly used from the 1960s onwards, although it is sometimes seen on older pieces. But I agree with evelyb, the style is 1960s-70s.[/QUOTE]
