Illustration of Ceres’s head hallmark\u00a0 to the left within a left-leaning oval frame.<\/p><\/div>

Ceres head hallmark to the left in a left-leaning oval frame<\/span>. Recall hallmark for large objects in gold and silver. Paris 1809.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

The information on the Ceres head hallmark to the left <\/span>and the other illustrations of hallmarks on this website come from the book Traditional French Jewellery<\/strong>, written by Mike Fieggen, expert in antique jewellery and hallmarks from Osprey Paris. This 300-page book, the definitive reference on French regional jewels and their hallmarks, is available in French and English in our store, on Amazon and at certain bookshops. A complete list of assay office marks<\/em>, small secret marks in the hallmarks that allow you to identify in which city an object was hallmarked, as well as a list of the closing dates of the hallmark offices, are published in this book for the first time. You can thus locate the origin of the jewels and also date them with more precision.<\/span><\/p>

Book available on<\/span> this<\/span><\/a> website<\/span><\/a> or visit the website<\/span> www.bijouxregionaux.fr<\/span><\/a><\/h4>

What is a recall hallmark?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

During the introduction of new hallmarks, often following the theft of hallmarks or the discovery of false hallmarks, a recall is decreed to check the hallmarks on existing jewellery held by professionals. Here are the instructions that were given to the hallmark offices in 1838:<\/span><\/p>

The recall hallmarks will be applied free of charge and without purity verification on works already legally marked with the recall hallmark of 1819 or hallmarks in use from August 1<\/sup>, 1819 until May 9, 1838 inclusive. <\/em><\/span><\/p>

As for gold and silver objects that bear hallmarks other than these hallmarks, and works whose marks, altered by use or by the lack of care taken in polishing, can no longer be determined, they will not receive the recall hallmarks; one applies to them new hallmarks; they will therefore be subject to testing and payment of the duty, unless the possessor prefers to break them. <\/em><\/span><\/p>

The same will be done, and without prejudice to the proceedings that must be taken in such cases, with regard to objects which are imprinted with false hallmarks. <\/em><\/span><\/p>

As far as possible, and to facilitate subsequent verifications, the recall mark must be applied alongside the old hallmarks and be accompanied by the counter-mark.<\/em><\/span><\/p>

Silverware and jewellery for the personal use of manufacturers and merchants should be counted as the works of their trade.<\/em><\/span><\/p>

There is no need to extend the recall to works owned by simple individuals, neither to those which will be found on deposit at the Mont-de-Pi\u00e9t\u00e9 (pawnbrokers).<\/em><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
