Hi,

It's no problem. The more you post, the easier it becomes.

I don't recall seeing that particular mark before, but Thomas Bradbury would be a candidate.

Hopefully another member may have more knowledge of the mark.

Good Morning Trev,
I am assuming these spoons to be Silver Plated.Is there any indication based on your experience that the flatware could be Sterling?
Thanks for your time,
Larry

Good morning gentlemen,

Look through this article on Thomas Bradbury & Sons Ltd then see if you can ascertain whether their sterling as well as by Thomas Bradbury. This is an excellent example of a silversmith who had a number of marks over his working career.
