Sheffield makers and date mark help?
Hi, I've got a couple of sterling silver napkin rings here, and I'm trying to determine their maker and age. They came in their original boxes (as pictured) and have the mark for Sheffield, but that's about as far as I can get. Can anyone give me an idea of who made them, and what year they were ...
