Re: help identifying: "L" in triangle hallmark, hollow fork
Excellent! Thanks so much for the info.
Do you know what it was intended to serve? I haven't seen a fork quite like it before.
The handle is at a slight angle, like a flipping spatula.

Re: Need help identifying hallmark (R lion)
Thanks for the info everyone, it was very useful.
Now that I see all the maple leaves, I don't know why I didn't check the Canadian Silver Marks section first.
