Unknown Mark on Coffee Spoons

Postby JasperUK » Thu Mar 01, 2012 3:35 pm

Hi all, apologies if this is in the wrong section but I'm still pretty new to this and haven't managed to identify which country this item originates from.

I have obtained the enamelled set of coffee spoons shown below, I have tried to get a clear picture of the markings but they are pretty small so that is proving difficult so have provided a quick description also.

Reading from left to right we have :

Makers Mark look to be HJH
The second stamp is causing the problem, not an assay mark I recognise or managed to look up - it looks like a small circle or shield with a dot in the middle, set on top of a cross (similar to a celtic symbol)
The third is ".925" and the fourth is an italic i

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi welcome to the forum

Perhaps British import mark for London please check:
http://www.925-1000.com/importmarks.html"
The i could be for London 1924 see:
http://www.925-1000.com/dlLondon.html"

HJH could be Henry James Hulbert ( in this case not the maker but the importer) registered Sep 1910 uptill …1936 known for spoons

Hi Oel, thanks for the welcome and even more thanks for the information, I think you cracked it. I must have looked at every other page on the site apart from the import marks but it was the London import mark I was looking for.
Thanks again
