Whiting Manufacturing Co.
Whiting Mfg. Co. of New York traces its roots back to 1840 with the firm of Tifft & Whiting in North Attleboro, Massachusetts. After a series of partnership changes the firm incorporated as the Whiting Manufacturing Company in 1866. The firm was a major manufacturer of both sterling holloware and sterling flatware.
Date marks for holloware were instituted by Whiting in 1905, their use continued until 1924 when Whiting was purchased by and absorbed into the Gorham company.
