1664. Besamim....possibly?
We bought this at a market in Krakow....it’s a Jewish spice holder and apparently called a Besamim...the marks look genuine and it does have some age but they are often fakes...this one may not be though as the figures are musicians and my research indicates that they don’t bother to fake the more intricate silver work preferring to use just simple bowing figures instead...either way I liked it and it cleans up like silver so I’m happy that it seems ok!
