Need help to identify date on Silver Minature tea set

Postby mogwaai » Sat Jun 19, 2010 7:05 am

Hi
I need some help to Identify the Date or 'X' marking on the minature tea set. I have found out it is from Birmingham by Levi & Salaman.
The 'X' stamp and date I am stumped.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Looks like 1922 to me, but wait for other opinions.
I enhanced your picture below.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

I agree with Pat, 1922. But I am a little surprised, as I had always understood that the Levi & Salamen name fell into disuse following the takeover of the firm by Barker Brothers in January 1921, but it would appear they held onto the name a little longer.
