Worn makers mark help

Post by Tricky625 »

Hello,

I am hoping someone in the forum can help with identifying the makers mark on this Georgina period sterling salt cauldron that came out of London.

It is well rubbed so I am likely not going to be able to definitively identify it but I am hoping for a miracle!

It has the date mark for 1749 so I am hoping this will narrow down the possibilities.

My apologies for the quality of the hallmark pictures in advance but they are the best I could get.

Further to this I believe the hallmark ends in a W or maybe starts with an M?

The style of cellar reminds me of Edward Wood but the partial hallmark does not really correspond.

Would anyone hazard some possibilities?

The pic shows all 4 marks, the date stamp, the partial lion passant, the city mark (I believe) and the very rubbed makers mark showing only the faint remains of either a W or M.
