    I have this fairly large Wedgwood pendant. I am sure it is genuine as it has the features we look for. I am having issues trying to date it. On the back, it says W68. From what I have researched, this means 1968. Can anyone confirm I am correct please? Also, what does the ‘W’ mean?

    It also says ‘Silver FAW’ on the silver surrounding which I understand to be the jeweller F A Welch who set the cameos for Wedgwood between 1950s and 1970s.

    Many thanks in advance!

    Could we see a good clear photo of the silver hallmarks, please? :)

    EDIT: Never mind, I see your pendant is one of the ones that doesn't have full hallmarking, and therefore won't include a date mark.

    It does seem that the general consensus is the impressed number is the year.

    Yup, 68 is 1968. Smalls were often not hallmarked.
