My grandfather recently gave me this mug that has been in my family for a few generations. I have done some research, but can't seem to find an identity for the Maker's Mark. I believe it is from London, and I think made in 1761 (but I am really unsure of the Date letter identification F?). Any help would be great. The closest thing I came up with was Fuller White, but I could not find an example of his mark.

Hi

You are right with the maker and date, this is his fourth mark entered 5th July 1758 he died on the 2nd July 1775, to quote Grimwades "His work mostly hollow -ware, tankards and coffee pots is good but rarely inspired"

I would like to thank you both Nigel and 2209patrick for your responses. I am sure my grandfather would also express his thanks, now we have a little more history to discuss.

Thanks again, your assistance is greatly appreciated.

I think you are very lucky with this piece. So many have been "improved" by floral chasing by Victorians and spouts applied more recently to make jugs.
