This teaset belonged to my mother, and she always kept an ad with it that identified it a Kirk Repousse exclusively for C D Peacock Chicago. However, I can't identify the marks. Help, please!
From what I can see under a loupe, there are four hallmarks:
1. A large square patterned block
2. A sheild with a lion and a key coming out of the shield (there also looks like an I or 1 in the lower right corner of the shield.
3. A cartouche with FW1
4. A bowl shaped marked with a stylized N2

Can't see the marks very well.
From your description they sound like Dutch export marks.
