<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 4404678, member: 10944"]You know what, the mark looked British to me. Because of the lack of hallmarks I didn’t bother looking there though. I almost did 5 different times but lack of hallmarks dissuaded me each time. There are no additional marks btw. I wonder if it is indeed Bishton & Fletcher, if it’s not hallmarked because it’s an inconsequential amount of silver and too burdensome to mark the small, ornate, delicate handle. I mean obviously smaller and more delicate things have been marked but I’m just spitballing. It certainly looks like their mark. Anyone have any experience with British pieces without hallmarks?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
