The Meriden Silver Plate Co. was founded in 1869 in Meriden, Connecticut by Charles Casper. It was one of the original companies that joined together to form the International Silver Co. in 1898. As the mark on your piece has no mention of International Silver, it may be ealier than 1898 (but not necessarily, as IS markings were far from consistent). The most common mark used by Meriden S P is circular with a lion in the centre. Marks with text only may be earlier. Your child's cup was made by many companies with different nursery rhymes etc. Often they were given as christening presents. A photo or more detailed discription of the marks might identify the maker. IP: Logged |
