[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 4485966, member: 111"]Please show an image and/or source for that attribution - John Oxley was a Sheffield [I]silversmith[/I], your item is silverplate, and the 'I/O' bears no resemblance to his registered mark. As Bakergma suggested, the 'I/O' mark was used by WMF on their mid-quality silverplate - and your marks are WMF, likely intended for the British market. Don't have the time to poke around online, but might guess that your lamp is a converted candlestick, if so, one the same or with the same elements could probably be found... You can find all your marks, the 'six-petal rosette', the 'EP' and 'NS', the 'antler', and the 'I/O', on this page: [URL]https://www.ascasonline.org/windowFEBBRA105.html[/URL] ~Cheryl[/QUOTE]
