    Hello All,
    I am trying to ID the mark on the bottom of this very old looking pewter flagon. I have seen quite a lot of angel marks so far but not this one. Saw one on eBay exactly the same item but he didn't know either.

    This where I miss Pat and Ladybranch so much. He could have told you something useful right off. And after his passing, she had some special way to see an archived version of his site. :(

    I've never seen that side-view angel either.

    Some of my pewter marks books do show an angel facing left however none like this. I'm more bothered by the empty triangle. My guess is that it might be a mark trying to look old on an olde style piece. Hope I'm wrong.

    Aren't angel marks just the quality mark with nothing to do with the maker?

    Pewter, and yes. Wish my memory wasn't failing me. I can't remember what I did with mine.
