Save your money for original period items.

Thank you Jerry, I will!

I see this items too much modern to me, thanks for help!

Relatively modern silver plate pieces. Definitely Not period.

The marks indicate this is Bruckmann silver plate (standard 90 thickness). This is their Modell Number 500, "Perlrand." The pattern was issued in 1921, so vintage is not a problem.

I'm very impressed with your knowledge of silver marks Diana.
Please don't take my asking as condescending, But what is your experience with the smith/proof markings? I am truly interested.

Welcome to the forum

Quite often its not when the items are made, but when did the fake insignia get on there..its very easy to buy a 70 year old spoon

I'm a hard core collector of WMF flatware, and genealogy is my other hobby. I descend from Johann Pieter Straub, 1733 immigrant to Philadelphia from Württemberg. WMF was founded in 1853 by Daniel Straub of Württemberg, hence my initial interest in the company. My interest in WWII has been lifelong because my father served with the 7th Army in Germany. Couple those interests with the many claims that Nazis owned WMF silverware, and I got interested in the identification of vintage German flatware, in general.

This manufacturer and pattern are not obscure. Bruckmann is a major German manufacturer, and the "B" with the railroad car is his mark. "90" is a general mark indicating the thickness of silver plate. The information about the pattern is online, once you've waded through images of Bruckmann patterns to find this one.
