Help with RJK Maker's Mark on Alice's White Rabbit Salt Spoon

Exhaustive research has only led me to 2 other RJK items, with "RJK" looking hand-etched as this one does, both salt spoons. One like this, but with enamel and a salt spoon with a Salem's Witch theme. I appreciate any help! https://i.imgur.com/UfDXo3t.jpg?1 https://i.imgur.com/BubftwF.jpg?2

ANSWER FOUND!

I found the maker!! This was purely by accident. There's a jeweler ID section of a site that I have promised myself to go through every single letter in the alphabet at least once a week. I did that here & I've pretty much memorized it or know where to look. On this site, I'd found this company,...

Re: Help with ID on ring with wolf/coyote head hallmark

tab73 By different, I meant that mine looked hand drawn, maybe with a signature in it. I submitted it to the wonderful person who runs that site & they didn't recognize it as a shop & thought it was probably Navajo. I've sent them a few marks on jewelry I couldn't figure out & they've be...

Oh! Thank you so much! I thought it was odd that they would be the same. I'd read it in a few places, but I did question it. In a previous post, I wrote all this & asked for a definitive answer from anyone who knew. It's so common, yet so many people here don't respond with this being China when...

Re: Unknow Maker on Sterling Cream/Gravy Ladle

S925 usually identifies China. But, it also can mean Scandinavian. Which is what yours must be. Although it sounds reasonable, "s" does not stand for sugar. Marks on silver only refer to makers, dates, countries/cities of origin, & silver content.

I know this has been forever since you asked, but I just now saw it. Your images are no longer available. On to your "S925" Most people believe that the "S" means it's from China. But, I've read it can also mean Scandinavia, which would imply Jensen. However, I haven't seen anyth...

tab73, you probably figured out that because it's from a "shop," it's being different makes sense.

Re: Help with ID on ring with wolf/coyote head hallmark

Hmm...Awesome site! Helped find my EH mark is Elgin Hoskey.

But, I couldn't find the coyote head anywhere. It definitely wasn't in the shops section. or the pictorial marks. Does someone know what it's listed under?

Yea! I have this exact mark in a sterling inlaid coral rind & was sure it was a wolf or dog-type head, but still couldn't find it. Thank you!!

Re: Date of Charles Robbins Mark

Rainwater shows those Robbins marks as in use circa 1900-1926, but I think more likely they came into use after 1912 when the firm became the ''The Robbins Co.', and have seen it on pieces that probably date as late as the '30s and perhaps even into the early '40s. Can't make out what the emblem on...

Date of Charles Robbins Mark

Hello, Thanks to this site & other posts in this forum, I finally figured out what this half worn off mark is! This is a Champleve Sterling Brooch made with the Lehigh University crest. Women were first allowed to attend in the graduate program in 1918. The first women graduates were in 1921, wh...
