Hi Steve,

Welcome to the Forum.

No need to shout, we're only slightly deaf.

Your earlier (deleted) post was answered by member Bahner. Your item has not travelled far, it was made in Sheffield by Roberts & Belk. It's silverplated.

I have a solid silver coffee spoon set with sugar tongs, not hallmarked, and all pieces are simply marked R&B with the alladin lamp.
