Leonard Posts: 2 Registered: Jul 2005	posted 07-22-2005 02:23 AM I recently aquired what appears to be a bud vase. On the bottom it has the letters "EPNS" which I believe is electroplate nickel silver. Part way around the base from that is a number 3535 and a little further are 3 marks the first being 2 crossed hammers in a circle, the second are the letters s o p in lower case written inside a "w" overlayed with a "C". the third is what appears to be a wolfs head looking to your left with its tounge hanging out. That is the best descriptions I can give at the moment. Can any one help me identify this item? Thanks Leonard IP: Logged

Although even with a picture, I'm unlikely to be able to assist on silverplate, I suspect those who can help would greatly appreciate a picture Best Rgds, TBC IP: Logged
