Could you post a picture? Black Starr and Frost was in business for over a century. In fact, maybe they still are open. This mark has been in use since 1878, the company traces its origins back to 1801. Much of their wares were not made by BS&F but by other makers. We usually can not identify by a mark alone. The shape you describe is a traditional one, in use for the last 500 or so years. IP: Logged |

I mainly shop estate sales and second hand stores looking for items which I enjoy, not just for value. I have had this mirror for twenty years and was given to me by my Grandparent. Most items I have have been researched with success however, this producer does not have IP: Logged |
