Thanks for the leads but I am not convinced it is NZ/Aussie origin. A great uncle served in WW1 (was in Egypt) and this item only turned up in my mother's jewellery box relatively recently. Although the great uncle did live in Canterbury, NZ he purchased items for his sister (my grandmother) in vari...

This item needs repair but it has family history so I am hoping to get a wee bit more detail before trying to restore. I am assuming it is missing agate - it is tiny and clearly needs a good clean if nothing else. The pin also appears to be someone's handy work (not original) and the catch is gone. ...

Again - Thank you so much. So helpful to gain this knowledge. When you find someone who knows that wee bit more the details we are trying to fill can be completed. Regards Grid

Wonderful - Thanks so much Silvermakersmarks - now you have mentioned that it seems so obvious. Enjoy your day - Regards Grid

Hi All - Pretty sure this is Robert Allison however the date and city is throwing me slighty. Am I correct with the marking - Robert Allison, Glascow....and the O looks to wide for 1961 so thinking 1937?? Any help appreciated as I am hoping to define some history against these items from my mum's es...

Hi All - I need some help to work out where this penannular brooch may have come into our family. My mother is from Scotland and with several other items we have been able to work out the marks and potential era/original owner. This one I am having trouble with so any help would be gratefully receiv...

Thanks for the reply - May be slightly older than I was thinking. Not convinced it isn’t a bent spoon rather than a loop spoon as such. Regards Grid

I have a spoon - not sure if it is a true loop spoon or just had handle bent as it doesn’t sit well. Stamped with Duchess Plate - what looks like EPNS in a shield. Does anyone know anything about what timeframe this is from - assume 20th century and is it a brand from an individual maker or a proces...

Thanks - new to doing this so just happy picture appeared. Will try hotlink now.

How odd the pics disappeared - let’s go again.

I have a Harrison Fisher & Co, Sheffield tea pot, coffee pot and hot water jug in EPNS A1 silverplate and would really appreciate a defined catalogue date. H.F & Co appear to be better known for cutlery but this tea & coffee style / set was released both in sterling silver and silverplat...

Thanks so much Phil - hugely helpful. Will assume it is Richard Richardson then for now. Regards Grid

Must mention this is my first post on the forum so apologies for the repeated entries. Thanks for the welcome Trev. If any of the above ‘RR’ names can be eliminated that would also be of great help as it just seems a rectangle and plain initials are reasonably common. Looking forward to hearing from...

Sorry - just noticed I said Richard when I meant Robert Rutland. It is the Birmingham that is throwing me. Who knows the RR linked with Birmingham?

Is this big enough to see - the RR is in a rectangle with no dots or dashes. Just the letters.

I am having trouble isolating the silversmith for a loop spoon and pusher. RR has reference to Richard Richardson - Richard Rew - Richard Rugg - Richard Rutland but I can't see if any of these had links to Birmingham. I can see RR in a rectangle - anchor (Birmingham) - lion (silver) - E (?1929).Is s...
