Well, here\'ssomethingyou don\'t see every day...
Henry Wilkinson (H.W. & Co.) was absorbed intoanother company in 1892. So, either the other company kept the name for someof its products, or thisisfrom the 1890s. Cobalt blue bowl in a three-footed, silver-plated holder with a stippled patternaround the outside.
The markson the bottomof the holder areinteresting:The \"6217\" appears (to my admittedly imperfectknowledge)to be a cataloguenumber; as far asI can determine, it hasnothing to dowith the compositionof the metal.
The row of five symbols are:The shield with \"H W & Co.\" (the maker\'s mark)\"M\" (no idea)\"S\" (ditto)\"EP\" (indicates electro-plate)Two crossed keys (presumably the company\'s logo)
I have no idea what the F.Eon the third line means. The Google let me down! :-(
Excellent condition (it was in a collection, not in daily use).
