Illustration du poin\u00e7on de t\u00eate de Minerve avec m\u00e8che sur la tempe dans cadre ovale tronqu\u00e9<\/p><\/div>

Hallmark of Minerva’s head with lock of hair on the temple<\/u> in a truncated oval frame. Number 2 under the chin for 2nd<\/sup> title (800\/000). Paris 1838-1919.<\/strong>
<\/span><\/p>

The informations on the Minerva hallmark and the other hallmarks on this website come from the book <\/span>Traditional French Jewellery<\/span><\/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 <\/span>the assay office marks<\/span><\/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 guarantee offices, are included in this book. You can thus, and for the first time, locate the origin of the jewels and also date them with more precision.<\/span><\/p>
