[26-2039] An elderly friend of mine recently found this item in her attic. I have spent hours attempting to research this on my own but in all honesty the only knowlege I have gain is the history or BB&B. What I would like to know is a little history of the item. I have attached a photo of the item and an additional photo of the bottom showing the hallmark. All help is welcome, including suggestions regarding sites I may use to do my own additional research. Thanks!

The object looks very like a Guernsey milk can, but I am UK based and cannot say whether this might have been the design source for a US made item. IP: Logged |

Hi Forrest. Your friend's pitcher is very nicely made but it is not silver, it is nickel. Best wishes, IP: Logged |

A question from my side is: Is this kind of material used for instance also in Hotels? Because the term sometimes is used "Hotel silver", I will check,if this question is placed in another topic with the search function, but it looks like this is such a piece. IP: Logged |
