I have spent more than one year searching for an identifications of these hallmarks/silver marks.
I have bought 4 Silver books;
been to ALL the on-line sources;
carefully watched items for sale at e-bay;
and alas no luck yet.

Can anyone here help ID the makers of these silver items?

Am I going crazy?

The mark on your teaset looks like is has the letters O C and something like a bee - does this suggest the French company of Christofle? I've never seen this mark, presumably the 800 indicates 80% silver content - but it certainly isn't French. Could this be Christofle produced somewhere other than France? I believe they now have a plant in Brazil and once had a plant in Germany.

The mark shown in pictures 3 an 4 is that of Jezler a large and old Swiss maker.

I don't believe the other marks are in any way related to this one.

The other marks are 20th century silverplate.
