Hello,
my first post so be gentle...
I have a gold ring with a makers make of E&W with a date letter of scripted u, e.g. 1745 or 1920. Any ideas on the maker please?
Thank you,
Alan.

Eaton and Wrighton of Birmingham. Their E&W mark first registered at Chester in 1902 and re-registered most recently in 1959.

Many thanks on the information, I have hunted high and low and not heard any mention of E&W. So I was correct in the assumption of 1920 and not 1745.
Best wishes.
