Author	Topic: SH over DC?
salmoned Posts: 336 Registered: Jan 2005	posted 10-25-2005 06:40 PM Sugar tongs, London, 1859/60, maker's mark is SH (or SR) over DC in a quatrefoil (four lobed frame). Can someone identify this maker? Thanks IP: Logged

PhilO Posts: 166 Registered: Jul 2004	posted 10-26-2005 03:12 AM Almost right: Samuel Hayne & Dudley Cater. Their partnership started in 1836 operating the firm started by Thomas Wallis in 1780 and continued by Thomas Wallis & Jonathan Hayne (Samuel's father). Phil IP: Logged
salmoned Posts: 336 Registered: Jan 2005	posted 10-26-2005 04:33 PM Thanks so much! I have a tongs by Thomas Wallis & Jonathan Hayne (1811), so it now has lineage in my collection. [This message has been edited by salmoned (edited 10-26-2005).] IP: Logged
