Looking for maker's name

[Ralph]

I recently purchased a dressing case for my wife with silver topped glass vials, boxes, etc. The silver tops are marked with the profile of Queen Victoria, the Leopard's head (London), the lion passant for silver content and a lower case serif 'r'. Using the chart included in the main website it appears it was manufactured in 1872 in London.

The maker's initials are T.W. and I was wondering if anyone has any idea who might have manufactured the case and silver items. I appreciate any help you can offer.

Regards,
Ralph

Hi, Thomas Whitehouse, he was listed as a silversmith and manufacturer of silver fittings for dressing cases and bags, he had his workshop at 12, Smith Street, Northampton Square, London E6, he died in 1898. Hope this helps,
regards Trev.

That is great news Trev, I had almost given up finding any information on the maker. Thank you very much.

Warmest regards,
Ralph
