No idea what this item is. Anyone know?

Postby boysilmet » Wed Apr 10, 2013 10:16 pm

This item is about 2 inches tall and weighs about 1 1/4 ounces. It looks like a Gorham hallmark, but I'm not sure. Beside the hallmark is the word "sterling" and beside that is the number "D151". Can anyone help with identification of either the item or the hallmark?ImageImage

Hi ~ It's an atomizer (missing the rubber bulb), would have been on a glass bottle. The 'D' prefix was used on silver-mounted glassware items from 1898 until at least 1907.

Your other post was deleted, please don't post the same item in more than one forum...
