Hi Pat, Thanks so much for that information. That looks exactly like the mark on my item. (Incidentally, the date letter is a 'q' - as in 'queue' (not 'g') I did find the 'q' date letter for Sheffield which was 1933 ? and the style seems to fit that year. So is this item made by a Glasgow ...
Hello, I wonder if you are familiar with the maker's mark on this piece of silver. 'RS' - 'Crown' 'Lion' 'q'. I'd appreciate any information, Many thanks, Shirley
Hello, I wonder if you could identify the mark on this Toastrack for me :- JAMES WEIR 8357. From what I have gleaned I think he may have been a Glasgow Silversmith and Retailer. I wonder is this a Patent, Design or Registered number ? I would love to have any information you may have. It has a very ...

Kind regards,

When we first bought it my husband thought it had a similarity in style and shape to a silver Tea Caddy we owned, but then was disappointed to find what looked like a foreign ...
Hi Pat,
Many thanks you for doing that. So the mark is a mystery for the time being.
The item looks like solid silver and is an attractive piece. Hope someone might recognise it.
