James Kennedy's Maker's Mark
Posted: Wed Aug 06, 2014 4:34 pm
Can anyone provide a clear image of James Kennedy's maker's mark in conjunction with the Dublin hallmarks?
Kennedy was a box maker working in Dublin in the second half of the 18th century; he died in 1803.
As far as I am aware, Kennedy's mark is I*K, that is I separated from K by a dot. As was a boxmaker, his work often bears only his maker's mark. Kennedy's work is frequently attributed to another Dublin silversmith, James Keating who also used the letters IK as his mark.
What I'm looking for is an example of his mark together with the Dublin hallmarks.
