1837 Coin Silver CLARK N-YORK Creamer

Postby Marjoriesgems » Sun Nov 12, 2006 6:16 pm

I am trying to learn some information about this maker.
The piece is signed CLARK on a cresent above N-YORK in a rectangle.
It appears to have COX & in front of the CLARK, but it is hard to decifer.
It is 6 3/4 inch high by 8 inches wide. It is monogrammed on the front F.L.J. 1837. Any information is greatly appreciated.

John and James Cox and one of the numerous Clarks were in partnership as Cox & Clark in New York City in the 1830s. They were retail merchants and importers. Their mark is found in conjunction with a number of NYC silversmiths of the day.

That might be John & James Cox & Clark, New York City (c.1830).
Sorry for the redundant post, can't find the delete button.
