Sugar sifter

Post by Wirraldavid »

My mum passed away a few weeks ago and I've found a sugar sifter in one of her cupboards. I've been searching hallmarks for a few days but can't decipher any of the marks except a Sheffield crown, can anyone help me identify the hallmark please?

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Brilliant, thanks for your quick help in finding the source of the hallmark, so not solid silver, but a nice spoon I'll be keeping to remind me of her.
