<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 32920, member: 44"]Looking at the pics for this dish are confusing to me. One pic has the definite markings fir Armetale, Wilton, Columbia, PA.

That is the mark for Barker Brothers of Birmingham, England. 5th mark down on the left.</p><p><a href="http://www.925-1000.com/silverplate_B.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.925-1000.com/silverplate_B.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.925-1000.com/silverplate_B.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>As this has no marking of Sterling, .925, or any British silver hallmarkings, it is not sterling.
