I would appreciate any help I can get on identifying the markings on a tea pot/coffee pot I have. I am not sure if it is silver but looks like it. The markings impressed on the bottom are what appears to be a torch inside an oblong box under that is an inverted triangle with DANA above, inside the triangle is DFA with a smaller upside down bell or goblet under that. Also has the following numbers 3090 and then 32. I would appreciate your help and thank you for taking the time to read this. IP: Logged |

Hopefully some of our European members can help on this piece. Your teapot is Danish, and the torch is seen on silverplated items. Have seen the DANA/D.F.A. mark in several different forms, sometimes including the two-tower Danish silverplate mark. The most information I've come up with is that it's from a firm in Copenhagen called Dansk Forsolvningsanstalt. The one piece that I still own has the "DFA" and "DANA" well separated, wonder if DANA is a maker and DFA a shop or cooperative of some sort. My notes also show DANA using a swan as a silverplate mark. Cheryl IP: Logged |
