Title: Silver enamel mustard/salt pot
Post by: Tigerchips on September 14, 2011, 06:45:09 PM

I bought this, it's marked 925 on the spoon. Am i right in thinking it's Chinese?

Wouldn't have thought Chinese,not with the 925 mark,but I've been wrong before,a few times,ok lots!

I wondered if your mark might match the oval 925 in section 13 on this page TC?

It's hard to tell with it being so small.

Did the spoon start life with the pot? ??? ;D ;D,saw a similar pot on ebay described as being Chinese.

It seems to have a matching pattern from what I can make out. TC can you show spoon front and back alongside the pot please? 

Also, is the pot not marked in any way anywhere?

The pot isn't marked at all, just the spoon.

Here's a few described as Indian... http://www.ebay.ie/itm/2-Antique-Vintage-Anglo-Indian-Cloisonne-White-Metal-Silver-Orb-Spice-Boxes-/371031507032

...and i think maybe the elephants are giving the origin away with this one...Vintage-925-silver-and-cloisonne-enamel-mustard-pot-and-matching-spoon (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-925-silver-and-cloisonne-enamel-mustard-pot-and-matching-spoon-/251778149155?pt=UK_Antiques_Silverware_RL&hash=item3a9f25ab23)
