Thanks. No matches there. From what I'm getting, the original firm was succeeded after 1929 and again mid-century by a firm that ceased in 1991. The current name useage is apparently a division of larger firm. (IMO-Plated stainless predominates, so a very different kind of working process is probable, i.e. automation with it's consequent loss of fine details in the pattern work.)
