Hello all, i received a beautiful gravy ladle from an auction recently, and it has the tell-tale fiddleback design ive come to liken to coin silver pieces, however it was marked as WM Rogers. The only marks on the piece are the name with a border surrounding it, and a monogram on the back of its handle, i can’t find any matches anywhere but i dont even know where to start on the Rogers hallmarks, if anyone can point me in the right direction id be greatful.
I suspect it isn’t silver. My personal rule is this: if there are no markings, it might be silver; but if there are markings, there must be something that identifies the quality of the silver.
Cutlery often has a very thick plating, given that it comes into contact with food and is subject to friction…
