Re: Irish Ale Tankard - need help with Hallmarks

Definitely Irish judging by the harp. What I assume to be the date letter is in the style used during the letter cycle 1720-1745 and, judging from the mark placement there may also have been a Hibernia which is now worn away; this would further restrict the date range to 1731-1745. However I cannot ...

Re: Hanoverian Spoons Identification

Almost certainly a London mark. The notch visible near the head of the lion passant suggests the hallmark period 1739 (d) to 1755 (u) and the maker's mark I·T would then be James Tookey who registered this mark in 1750. We can therefore give a date of 1750 to 1755 for the spoons but without 100% cer...

The hallmark is a sterling silver hallmark for London 1921/22 but I cannot decipher the maker's mark.

Re: Silver Trumps Marker - Could anyone help identify the maker W.S please

We don't have any published references for London sponsors' marks of this date (1922) so the information is not readily available. The London Assay Office would have the relevant records of course (https://www.assayofficelondon.co.uk/).

Re: Hallmark: "castle", "W", "crown&quo

It looks like Charles S Beller is the patentee of the cigarette stand but not the manufacturer. I have done a bit of genealogical research and in the 1950 US Census there is a Charles S Beller, aged 38, living in Ocean Avenue, Kings, New York. His occupation is given as Attorney working in his own b...

Re: Hallmark: "castle", "W", "crown&quo

Charles S Beller looks a very likely candidate for this mark. I did a Google search for the name and found a couple of completed auctions for a cracker holder and a cigarette stand both of which show the mark in question and which have been attributed to Beller by the relevant sellers. The cigarette...

Re: Irish oyster fork? Maker? Royal?

I cannot read the lettering on the badge but it has the feel of being a regimental crest. If so it is military silver from the officers' mess. I suspect that the maker's / sponsor's mark is that of Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co: https://www.silvermakersmarks.co.uk/Makers/Shared/WGJL-GibsonAndLang...

Re: Glasgow Torah Yad

Scottish gold & silversmith records are held by the Incorporation of Goldsmiths of the City of Edinburgh and there is an online resource allowing us to access Edinburgh, Glasgow and provincial sponsors' marks. Although this lists a number of JK marks, none of them span the right time frame.
