This wee label is silver and has been in a family for as long as current memory - over 80 years.
I had thought it was colonial given that the marks are similar to London or Great Britain Hallmarks of the 1820s. But as yet I have not been able to find anything similar. I would appreciate any help in identifying
(a) the maker - J.K. & Co.
(b) the place of origin
