Please help ID - W crown? horse?

Post by ClaudeD »

I think this is British based on its history, but I could not find these marks anywhere. I believe the first mark is a simplified crown, the second obviously a W, and the third a horse (lion?).

This appears to be a cocktail fork.

Any help is immensely appreciated.

Hi Claude,
History also tells us that objects have a tendency to relocate, in this case the marks tell us from where.
See: Watson at American Marks

This has a very Danish, almost Jensenesque-,style, popular in the United States in the 1930s. Does anyone know the pattern or designer?

It's called the Juliana pattern, first introduced by Watson in 1938.
