Hope someone can help. My wife and I are avid sterling and plate collectors. We came across this Sugar Sifter in a thrift store. Part of the fun for us, is identifying the maker etc.. This one has got us realy stumped. The mark is repeated twice,is worn and appears hand hammered.It looks like "G H"or "G K". Just under the rim on the outside of the bowl,are 2 engraved inscriptions, to faint to photograph, one reads "SATUEK WM. 1880", the other "CHRISTINASON & SONS" or "CHRISTIANSON & SONS" The workmanship and style seem consistent with the late 1700's. I have searched and searched but to know avail. We would appreciate anyones input.

I can only offer a possibility that you might want to research.
George Hutton (b. 1730, d.1806) used a similar GH mark.
He worked in the state of New York.
Not sure if the town was Albany or New York City.
