Hi Pat, Thanks so much for that information. That looks exactly like the mark on my item. (Incidentally, the date letter is a 'q' - as in 'queue' (not 'g') I did find the 'q' date letter for Sheffield which was 1933 ? and the style seems to fit that year. So is this item made by a Glasgow silversmit...
Hello, I wonder if you are familiar with the maker's mark on this piece of silver. 'RS' - 'Crown' 'Lion' 'q'. I'd appreciate any information, Many thanks, Shirley
Hello, I wonder if you could identify the mark on this Toastrack for me :- JAMES WEIR 8357. From what I have gleaned I think he may have been a Glasgow Silversmith and Retailer. I wonder is this a Patent, Design or Registered number ? I would love to have any information you may have. It has a very ...

Hi Pat, We are ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED with your information, the fact this is Australian makes it even more special to us now. When we first bought it my husband thought it had a similarity in style and shape to a silver Tea Caddy we owned, but then was disappointed to find what looked like a foreign ...
Hi Pat, Many thanks you for doing that. So the mark is a mystery for the time being. The item looks like solid silver and is an attractive piece. Hope someone might recognise it. Regards, Shirley
Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me identify the mark under this Altar Wine Vessel. I have put it under 'Silverplate', as the mark doesn't tell me otherwise. Of the three symbols shown, only the third mark CEF is clear. First mark could be a head or a numeral. Second mark could be a jug on it's ...
