Unknown Makers mark

Post by Kirils »

Hello again. I have a beautiful jewelry box with this marks. From what I know This is London, 1916, imported to Russia and an unknown maker TW. The ones that I've seen TW marks, most of them worked in 18th or beg. of 19th century.

Hi,

It's always better to post an image of the whole item as the style of work may offer valuable clues. There were several 'TW''s registered at London at this time. The year of assay was 1896, not 1916.

Hi,

I think it likely the mark of Thomas Whitehouse. He specialised in the manufacture of silver dressing case and bag fittings.
