Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

EP-R.C-NS is a mark that crops up every now and again. It is almost certainly an English manufacturer working in the 1920's and producing a variety of wares, but beyond that I have never been able to nail the owner of that mark.

Is it possible that the EP - NS part of this mark stands for Electroplated Nickel Silver, and the RC part is the maker? or something else?

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

The accepted abbreviation of Electro Plated Nickel Silver is indeed EPNS.
