Help with Hallmark

Postby ClaireHardisty » Tue Aug 11, 2015 11:28 am

I am struggling to interpret the hallmark on a pair of silver sugar tongs. The mark is quite worn, but I cannot make out the standard mark, so it is therefore difficult for me to place the rest. Any help would be gratefully received

Hi Claire,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your question cannot be answered without the required images. The below should help you:

http://www.postimg.com is recommended. Embedded images get a far greater response than just posting links.

Give some time to creating your posts and photos, we'll give some time to researching and answering them.

Hi Claire,

Please try again with the marks, but make them a large sharp close-up.

That's great.

That's a silver-plater's mark used by William Page & Co. of Birmingham.
