<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lizjewel, post: 2484529, member: 13874&quot;]Whose-what mark is this on a heavy silver sieve? This mark is incredibly tiny. As my DH just bought a microscope with a camera (and light!) that can take pictures sent directly to the computer, he was able to get it this clear. Clearer than that is probably not possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>What does it say? My best guess is CHEC on middle line. Top and bottom lines are guesses only, too blurry.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I were to hazard a guess as to origin of this sieve I&#039;d say Czechoslovakia. Sometimes abbreviated CHECH or CHECKO on jewelry I have seen. Am not sure if it&#039;s sterling or not, it&#039;s pretty heavvy, 7 1/8&quot; long, square bowl 2&quot;+ 1/16&quot; irreg.</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought it might be an absinthe strainer/sieve but experts in such a forum assured it it wasn&#039;t. So it&#039;s a sieve for tea or whatever.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any assist with ID based on the mark/stamp is appreciated. Thank you in advance!</p><p>[P.S. Didn&#039;t find this stamp on .925-1000 site <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie14" alt=":arghh:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]266533[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]266534[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]266539[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
