Porringer or Bleeding Bowl

Could anyone please define the difference between these two items? Many have said they are one and the same My interpretation- Bleeding Bowl is shallow (ish) cushion shaped bowl with single handle & Porringer - two handled lipped deep bowl (I had thought for containing a porridge like substance?...

Re: Help with marks -- much appreciated

'JD & S' are marks for James Deakin & Son of Sheffield. The 'EP' means it's electroplated.
The last one is the trade mark (a desk bell)

Re: Help with mark please

Certainly bears a resemblance, many thanks.
The style of the tongs seems earlier than the dates that Day worked, which threw me off.
Thanks again

Re: Help with marks please

I realise that the site isn't too keen on links, however I saw this with reference to this mark.
Scroll down to LC.

Re: Contemporary maker's mark

On trying to describe the purpose of this piece to others, I have come up against a barrier.
Does any one have any idea of its purpose? Does it have one? A modernistic chalice? Vase? 9 cms high x 7.5 cms square.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
John
