Description: A lovely set of Jugendstil German 800 silver teaspoons, of very good quality. The spoons all have a cast crest depicting an eagle within a shield, over a cross within another shield. This has the appearance of a military crest, but this is not our area of expertise. The spoons are in their original box, marked "HG Berg, Guldsmed, Sandefjord", which is in Norway - so the possibility exists that the spoons were manufactured in Germany for the Norwegian market, so the crest could be Norwegian. Note - The spoons weigh 145 grams, not 160 grams as per our original description. Close inspection also reveals that 4 spoons are by maker S in circle (which we have not been able to identify), 2 spoons have a zig-zag makers mark, which we believe is Wilhelm Muller of Berlin, who worked between 1880-1940.
