Need help to identify mark: R and lion outline

Postby quigleygirl » Sat Feb 03, 2007 7:23 pm

I have a vanity set that has a mark that I have not been able to identify. It is marked “STERLING 925 R (lion picture)” Can anyone identify it for me? Thanks!!

I believe that's one of the many marks used by Roden Brothers Ltd., Toronto, Canada. Founded in 1891. Bought by Birks in the late 1950's.
