Their mark is two HH with 2 axes in the middle and a star above. The items also have the silver mark of Silver for France. They exhibited at the 1900 Paris Universal Exhibition and were much in demand. The set consist of 4 cellars in silver with the inside in gold platted. Size: cellars: 1/5" in diameter and 1" tall. Average weight: 14 grams and 4 spoons in gold (18kt?) are 2" L x 3/4" W. They weight 7.52 grams for all 4. This set is in particularly great condition, having been stored unused for the last 75 years. The set comes with its original box. See less
