Help with ID on English(?) lamp
Posted: Fri Sep 06, 2024 8:31 am
Hi all!
I am new to this forum and hoping somebody can help me identify these marks. I’ve been researching these marks for a couple of hours now but can’t seem to make sense of it. The lamp was acquired in Sweden, it is silver plated and might be (jugding from its design) from The UK. The combination of marks, or rather the lack of marks, confuses me. Am very grateful for any guidance.
First stamp appears to be letters ‘P.D’. I first thought this might indicate palladium, but the dot between the P and the D makes me unsure.
Second stamp is ‘FE’. Probably makers mark, Frederick Edmonds perhaps…?
Third stamp, a single old-English ‘S’. Might be Birmingham year stamp for 1893, but is missing other Birmingham stamps, so probably not…
Am very grateful for any help. Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Z
