Hope no one thinks I am being a forum ummmm pig. However it seems I gravitate towards odd items or marks and I am really curious about these marks.

They appear on this repoussed bowl. The bowl is 21/4" high, 4" at the bowl part and the base is 2 1/4.

Would anyone know if those heads are lions or wigged judges or what?

I do not know the maker, but I have seen the mark before and they are definitely lions.

Great identification, Scott. It would seem that this bowl, then, was made sometime between 1970 and 1993, or perhaps even more recently if IS kept using the mark after their copyright expired?
