I checked the Edinburgh Assay Office database for this mark, and although it doesn't have this exact mark, it does have a C.MK which it lists it as provincial, unidentified. There seems to be a good match for it in Jackson's (no mark illustrated), where it lists a Cunningham & McKenzie, first me...

Hi,

This is not really my area, but Jackson's has a James Finlayson in the Glasgow section, earliest date 1807.

How curious! Thank you for you help so far.
What photos would you like to see?

Miles

Sorry for the wait.

Here is a photo of the other mark.

Hi Maurice,

There is one other little mark in a circle, and it's full of dirt. I will try to get a photo of it in a couple of weeks.
Unfortunately, the first letter of the maker's mark is not readable.

Does anyone know the maker's mark on this tastevin which I believe was made in Paris between 1727 and 1732?

Thank you, Trevor. That's a nice piece, and you're right with your attribution.

Miles

Thank you very much, Tosten.

Does anyone know the maker of this silver spoon? It's very similar to a Norwegian spoon that I once posted here: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=31206 Miles http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h200/granmaa/a33_zpsc3369c80.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h200/granmaa/a34_zp...

Hi Frank,

They look like Continental European spoons to me.

Miles

The pattern is Lily.

Thank you very much, David.

Can anyone help me read the marks on this Chinese sycee?

I don't quite know which section to put this in. No English hallmarks, so perhaps the next most likely option is America. Marked HRF and another mark I can't identify.

Strange mark found on a c.1800 Old English pattern soup ladle. DMV or DMLV.
Any ideas?

Miles

Thanks, Bahner.

Could anyone tell me anything about Gebruder Friedlander? Is he the retailer of this ladle? There seems to be an "H" mark which I was thought could be a maker. Miles http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h200/granmaa/a-001_zps9e79e92f.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h200/granmaa/a29_zps6...

It's nice to see an old thread up and running again. I've come across another example of the W mark, this time with Glasgow marks on a c.1800 ladle and maker's mark LN (not traced). I think the most likely possibility is that W is a town mark for a town near to Glasgow. Wishaw? Miles http://i64.phot...

Thanks, Trev.
