Pappy Posts: 3 Registered: Oct 2000	posted 10-23-2000 11:50 AM I have just purchased a silver candy dish with a glass insert, the silver base has the following mark: First square a dragon head, Second square a "C", third square a dragon tail, can anyone ID this? IP: Logged
Ulysses Dietz Moderator Posts: 1265 Registered: May 99	posted 10-24-2000 09:01 AM This is mysterious to me. Is it sterling or plate? (Sounds like a plate mark, psuedo hallmark--but I don't know). Any help out there in cyber-silver land? IP: Logged

WGS Posts: 136 Registered: Oct 99	posted 10-24-2000 10:36 AM I haven't seen many dragons lately - heads or tails, but I wonder if this might be Cromwell Plate Co. Their mark has a crescent in the center "square" plus something fantastic in a "square" to the left and to the right. ------------------ IP: Logged

Pappy Posts: 3 Registered: Oct 2000	posted 10-24-2000 11:27 AM That sounds pretty similar, it could be a crescent, any idea about a web-site about this co.? quote: Originally posted by WGS: I haven't seen many dragons lately - heads or tails, but I wonder if this might be Cromwell Plate Co.
