    Wedgwood marks changed many times from the manufacturer's founding in 1759 until today. Very early pieces often say "Wedgwood and Bentley," while most pieces made from 1769 to 1929 say "Wedgwood" in block letters. In 1929, the brand began to use a serif script. On 1stDibs, find a selection of expertly vetted Wedgwood.

    The interlaced double “L” mark is the signature mark of Sèvres porcelain.

    Mark Rothko is so famous due to his influence on modern art. He is best known for his color field paintings, which have regions of color and helped to move abstract art further away from traditional notions of representation.

    Yes, fake jewelry can have markings. Jewelry produced out of materials other than precious metals and real gemstones may still have a brand hallmark stamped somewhere on it, as many fashion jewelry makers add their logos to their pieces. Fake jewelry that is a replica of authentic fine jewelry may also bear a maker's mark to make the reproduction more convincing. However, these fraudulent hallmarks often aren't identical to the genuine markings, and noticing this difference can help you spot fakes being passed off as genuine pieces. Explore a large collection of jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023
    Yes, some vintage jewelry has markings. Makers may have stamped pieces with hallmarks to represent the types of metals used in them and/or to signify that they came from certain brands. However, not all vintage jewelry is marked. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of vintage jewelry from some of the world's top dealers.

    How Italian silver is marked varies. However, the majority of pieces will have the word "Italy" stamped onto their surfaces, as well as the numbers 800 or 925. The 800 marking means that a piece is 80% silver and 20% alloy, while the 925 stamp indicates sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver and 7.5% alloy. Some Italian silver may also feature a maker's mark. Find a collection of Italian silver objects on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    How Murano glass is marked varies. Some pieces feature a label, sticker or other mark that bears the name of the studio that produced them.
