Hi I was wondering if someone would be able to help me identify what I think may be a sugar bowl
The spoon ( I think is missing ) , the markings say HM &S
We need a clear, closeup image of the hallmarks around the edge of the lid.
Don’t try to hold the lid in your hand, and the phone camera in the other hand. That won’t work. Put the lid down on the edge of a table. Now crouch down and bring the phone to within an inch of those hallmarks. Most modern phone cameras will automatically shift into a macro mode, and produce a nice, clear, closeup image.
The hallmarks will tell us where the piece was assayed, and in what year, and they will also tell us who the maker is.
