Hi
These marks are on a brush and mirror set I found at an auction.
I have guessed this to be Birmingham Sterling circa 1774. I dont know the makers mark ??
Any Ideas?

Hi,
Welcome to the Forum.
Your brush was assayed at Birmingham in 1926.
Try and post a clearer photo of the maker's mark.

Hey Trev
Thanks for the info. I have a mirror with this brush and the makers mark is a little clearer. Hope this posts better.
Thanks again.
PS can you work ou the date it was made from the marks. I was probably wrong with my calculation.
Cheers Shane
