Author	Topic: help identifying a mark please
SLABERY Posts: 3 Registered: Jul 2021	posted 09-04-2021 08:21 AM Hi I recently acquired an art deco vanity set, I cant see any marks of any kind on the items but an image search comes up with identical items, so I have two questions really, the first is, the items I have found online have a a mark of UWM with a lizard in a box made of dots,,,,can anyone identify this mark please. Secondly would it be normal for items to sometimes have no marks on them but still be by the same company, i have tried puting a magnet against the items and there seem to no attraction thanks IP: Logged
