Hello everyone.

Although not an expert, I have been working with, admiring, buying in a small way for personal pleasure, and for the past few years working as an assistant at an appraisal firm. I can usually decipher silver marks without too much trouble (and the proper research aids).

Every now and then though, I reach out to all gathered here for a bit of assistance:

I have spent a couple of hours between Tardy's and online data bases trying to identify the maker of this lovely lidded creamer. I see a q with a crown, FAC with a symbol, and what I believe to be a charge mark for LaRochelle. Does anyone more knowledgeable than myself have a clue?

Thanks so much, Denise
