Hi Angela,

Can we reshoot this spoon? Would like to clearly see what the wording is above and below the trademark. Would be wonderful to see the whole spoon as well.

Thanks
Warren

Hello Warren,

Thank you for trying to help. Unfortunately the spoon is no longer in my possession so additional photographs are not possible.

The mark is that of Benjamin F. Lowell of Malibu Beach, California. The mark was used from 1946 onwards.

Warren, I think the words above and below the 'BEN' mark are 'STERLING' and 'HAND WROUGHT'.
