Hi

Snuff boxes were made for the pocket or the table, I should imagine yours is of the latter.

I am beginning to think these must be pseudo marks, the lion passant doesn't seem right.

Martin

Hi

It appears to be by Sheffield maker Creswick & Co with a date letter 1825 but with Queen Victoria duty mark which would not be right for this date.
Lets see what others think.

Hi

This fiddle back teaspoon has me stumped, can anybody hazard a guess on the marks?

Many Thanks
Martin

Maryland ?

Hi Aguest, even with the object in hand and under a decent loupe, the detail is no clearer than in the posted image. I think it must have been struck with a damaged punch, as the original gilding is intact on all of the marks, so it is not down to wear of an originally good strike. I guess I wont ev...

Thank you all for taking the time to help in trying to identify the marks.

Martin

Many Thanks

Martin

Thanks very much for the information guys, there are no further marks on the jug, if the handle was originally marked it has completely worn away and left no evidence.

Thanks again
Martin

Hi

Hi

I would be most grateful if anybody could help identify these marks found on this silver jug and bowl.

Many Thanks

Hi This marrow scoop is stamped four times with the mark of Thomas & William Chawner, I know that silver marked with the makers mark only is not uncommon and the possible reasons for this have been discussed on here before. What I find a bit unusual on this piece is that the final mark is a diff...

Another variation of the marks, this time on a Celtic point teaspoon.

Martin

Thank you for your suggestions, I think you may be onto something with the Benjamin Cartwright suggestion.

Martin

Thanks Phil, I thought it might be a bit of a long shot to pin it down.

Hi This table spoon has some partly worn hallmarks, the date letter is possibly 1769, but is there enough left of the makers mark for anyone to make an attribution?
