ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 05-26-2019 01:50 AM We found this small bread tray at a flea market this weekend and do not recognize the makers mark. I pictured the mark in two ways as I really do not know what is up or down. I suspect it was a silversmith from Baltimore probably from the first half of the 20th century. Does anyone recognize the mark? IP: Logged
June Martin Forum Master Posts: 1326 Registered: Apr 93	posted 05-27-2019 10:11 AM Reached out to some Baltimore friends and got the following: quote: Stieff crown mark from before 1929. Founded in 1892 as the Baltimore sterling silver company the early mark was a crown with B, later a crown with S when it became Stieff. IP: Logged
ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 05-27-2019 01:00 PM Thanks June. I had seen that the Baltimore Sterling Co. used a crown and later became Stieff so I thought it would have some connection to them. Stieff started using date marks in 1901 so the unreadable letter on the mark maybe the letter B as this piece has no date mark. That I think would be when it was still the Baltimore Sterling Silver Co. I never knew when Stieff started. IP: Logged
