More information

The requirement for re-control marking of already manufactured silver objects is included in Anthoni Grill's regulation of 1689 for Stockholm silversmiths. Similar requirements were introduced in connection with the control statute of 1754 and the introduction of the three crowns mark. Older works that entered the market were also to be marked. For a short period, likely after 1765, a Saint Eric's mark and a large control mark were used on objects in Stockholm, as seen on the auction's tankard.
