Looking for help identifying the maker of these napkin rings. The mark resembles an S, a D and a G with a symbol in the middle of the letters. Thank you in advance for any ideas or information.

Don’t know anything about this spoon with curios for me marks on outside sides of the bowl. Any help with filling in the gaps will very much appreciated.

It would be interesting to see the town mark for Egypt which I presume is in Buckinghamshire.

Thank you! Better than arches and looks correct to me.

Thank you Aguest. Until I learn better, it will be arches.

I have a couple more questions about this napkin ring. First of all I'm looking for a name for the type of script used for the monogram, and secondly is there a proper name for the banding at the ends. I've seen banding like it called arches, but does anyone have a specific name for this design ...

Currently no trouble if not better for my part.

Thank you for all your effort Aguest. Here are a couple more images that may be useful. One of them is of the shoulders of this spoon just because the tips appear to turn away from the bowl.

The last mark also looks like GA. It’s turned upside down from the other two. I don’t see anything that makes me think it’s cast. Although it is not a particularly thin spoon even with all the wear.

Not sure which forum this entry belongs in. And of course hoping for the maker’s name.

I will presume they are sterling until testing proves otherwise.

This seems like a bit of an overly optimistic assumption to me.

Thank you for the image of the markings that I should be seeing.

Thank you for the submission Trev.

Rheims Pattern Advertisement- 1919:

Turns out this is the 1919 introduced R Wallace & Sons Pattern Rheims which was produced in sterling silver. As these knives are unmarked, I will presume they are sterling until testing proves otherwise.

Just hoping by chance someone will recognize something about these knives. They sort of look ecclesiastical to me, but that may not be much help. No marking visible at all.

The James Gilliland mark was my best guess as well. Thank you Trev for the confirmation.

This is an especially attractive and I think exceptionally heavy pair of salt cellars at 190g for both of them combined. I am looking for help identifying the silversmith's or sponsor's mark.

Perfect! Thank you, Cheryl

Thank you both for your responses. Actually, the blade is completely flat. It is shadows that make it look otherwise.

Wondering if anyone knows the purpose of this knife. It is about 12 3/8” long and weighs 176g.
