Thanks for your input.

Hello all, I wonder if anyone can assist with this WW 800 mark on a pair of ice tongs. Looking for the maker and hopefully from that we may be able to determine the age. Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

Trying to assist a friend with the maker on this French piece, can anyone help?
