            This  silversmith  has
            been  somewhat  of  a
            mystery  for  some
            time.  My  research
            h a s  s o  f a r  n o t
            clarified whether this
            was     a   retail
            silversmith,  a
            manufacturing
            silversmith  or  both.
            Currently,  I  am
            inclined  to  believe
            the  DAIK  GE  name
            w a s  m o r e  o f  a
            “trademark”.  I  have
            also  not  discovered
            any  evidence  that
            large  items  were
            made;  flatware  and
            small  tableware
            items  seem  to  be
            associated  with  the
            !
            mark.!
