Identifying Jeweler Marks: Understanding Maltese Crosses & Maker's Marks


Question
Do you know which jeweler used a maltese cross as a maker's mark?

Answer
Hello John and thank you for your inquiry. I am sure there are quite a few that used this mark but usually there are initials or other marks that accompany it i.e. cross inside a circle. Researching also would depend on the item it was used on - gold, silver or costume jewelry. Hope this helps and recheck your item for any of the above.
