Id Country of Origin and Manufacturer

Post by walleye23 »

Hello! I need help identifying the manufacturer and country of origin on a set of salts. They are in a leather box marked Hall & Co. Silversmiths Manchester. Here are photos:

Thank you for your time and God bless!

Hello and welcome to the Forum.
Unless stamped elsewhere the salt which is pictured has not been hallmarked at a UK Assay Office and therefore may not be of our standard of silver.
If the salts were made in the UK a suggested manufacturer is Charles Favell & Co of 111 Arundel Street, Sheffield who registered a mark similar to the one shown here at the Sheffield Assay Office in 1901.

Best Wishes,
Mike

Could you let me know what this means? Would these be considered silver (non-sterling), like coin silver or are they considered silver plate? Thank you for your time!
