Hello

Can anyone give me some clues as to who this maker is. I have looked at makers marks for WH but im not sure if they match. The table dressing mirror is dated 1900 Birmingam. I thought it might be William Holmes but not sure. Any help would be really greatful. Many Thanks Jonathan

Hello Jonathan,

Upside down the mark looks rather more like HM than WH. A possible candidate is Lionel Spiers trading as Henry Matthews. See the Forum's list of Birmingham marks.
