Fork

[PW333abc]

Hey!

I would be very grateful for help. I have a spoon made in Sheffield. Not sure which year and which silversmith. I also wonder what the symbol on the front of the fork symbolizes? The one with a bird, a crown and a sword.

Best regards

Hi,
The maker is Martin, Hall & Co (Richard Martin & Ebenezer Hall).

I think it is letter c for 1895.

Hi Per,

The symbol on the front of the fork is the family crest of a former owner.

Hello!

Thank you very much for the answer.

Could it be some noble person, considering the crown?

It's a coronet, so yes, but I've been unable to find a match for this crest so far.

Hello!

Thank you very much for the defense. It would be fun if the fork was owned by some noble family. I'll keep checking.
