These items were made by a goldsmith called Herman who lived and worked in Kirkconnell in Dumfries, he was a German national, which would explain the Jugendstil quality of his work. I have been unable to find out anything more about him. The jewellery is very well made by a craftsman, none of it is hallmarked.
