Need to know some history regarding a family egg cup

Postby ceek2007 » Tue Dec 16, 2008 7:12 pm

Hi Guys,

I have posted in this form because I am assuming that the egg cup is British, if it isn't please forgive my stupidity! :-)

I would appreciate any help that anybody could offer regarding the identification of an egg cup that has been in my family for a great many years.

I have linked to two images, one of the actual egg cup and the other of the hallmark.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

That looks like Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co. Ltd. and assayed at London in 1905.
