I have a beautiful set I inherited from my grandmother. It is very ornate with roses and flowers all over it and it includes all of the serving pieces including the carving set. I have been unable to find the marking in the encyclopedia but it has a marking of a profile of an indian brave head with a feather that runs down the back, I would be grateful if someone could tell me who the maker is. Thank you
.
What company has a marking of an Indian head with feather?

International Silver Company used the Indian Head mark on Meriden Britannia Sterling pieces after 1898 up till 1930's. Is your mark shown here : http://www.silvercollecting.com/silvermarksI.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
