Silver-German

Silver is listed by material, such as coin, plate, or sterling; by some major manufacturers, such as Tiffany; by the type of item, such as candlesticks, jewelry, and napkin rings; or by country of origin. Countries throughout the world have their own unique silver styles, traditions, and marks. Silver from Germany is listed here. Do not confuse this with "German silver" which is a nickel alloy that does not contain silver. More examples may be found under Silver-Continental.
