[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 26029, member: 25"]I'm used to well worn British hallmarks,and I see a dot there and the top of the town mark. I'd not worry about the exact maker, it's a pretty old but pretty ordinary piece with no famous maker involved, so it would sell as what it is, not by who made it. I'd just quote the I.W mark and leave it at that. I'd call it a sparrow beak sauce pot or pourer; saucepan seems to imply something else and much larger.
