Can you tell me anything of a 4 piece tea set (the 4th piece is the refuse container for the used tea leaves) that I recently acquired? The stamp on the bottom says Silver Metal Mfg Co. There are different numbers on each of the 4 pieces and then there appears to be some crossed out scribble below the numbers and name. I appreciate any light you can shed on my inquiry as I have been totally frustrated in my research. Thank you for your help. Jane IP: Logged |

The Silver Metal Mfg. Co. (of Lyons and Oswego NY)was founded in April, 1892 as "a general stock company to produce table wares from a metal newly invented by Dr. D. J. Toothill." It moved to new quarters in Oswego later the same year. This is from Rainwater and a note to myself that I can barely read. I have not tracked down what exactly this new metal may be, but suspect it was a variation on Britannia or nickel silver. [This message has been edited by wev (edited 02-27-2001).] IP: Logged |
