[QUOTE="KSW, post: 9801465, member: 8708"]The luckiest charity shop find in a very long time!! I can’t quite believe the hallmark was missed, all I can think is that because there wasn’t an English lion on it they thought it was plate? Thanks to [USER=5515]@MrNate[/USER] and his useful little quizzes a while ago, I was able to spot it was likely silver before i’d turned it over. Hamilton and Inches makers mark and does that r look like 1898? I’ve seen the two handled Scottish bowls described as Quaiches but is a three handled one still a Quaich? I think they are black faced highland sheep on the handles as they have the curly horns. It’s c6” across. Thankyou for looking and any thoughts :-) [ATTACH=full]486611[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486612[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486613[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486614[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486615[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486616[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486617[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486618[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486619[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]486621[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
