ENGLISH PLATE.
BEARS STAMP
Of SMITH
Connoisseur Explains How
Term Sheffield Plate
Originated

Some confusion seems to exist III
this country regarding the word
| plate" which perhaps arose from
| the invention of Sheffield plate.
And it is a well known fact that
| the average person, or even those
who are supposed to be posted,
have but a slight idea OF what
Sheffield plate really is.
About the middle of the eight
zenith century it was discovered IN
Sheffield, England, that q very
thin plate of silver. laid either size
of a heavier plate of copper, couio
be fused By pressure between
rollers the combination was 80
strengthened and hardened that y
could be wrought as solid silver
was wrought.
Much genuine old Sheffield plate
is now in existence in this colln'
try, and it is often difficult to de-
eide, upon q casual examination,
whether it is silver or plated.
Usually the rims, the edge of the
bases, or the bottoms of the feet
show traces of the copper where
the silver has been rubbed off Dy
constant long wear. Sheffield plate
was produced to a considerable ex-
tent in New England, but undoubt-
edly a great deal was imported
from England.
It is quite an easy matter to de-
termine the age of any piece or
English silver, as the custom pre-
vailed after 1878 of using date
letter to represent the year when
made. To prevent confusion, differ
ent types Of letters were substituted
every twenty years, on May 29.
Each article also bore the stamp
Of the silversmith, usually his In.
itials in some device-Brittania or.
the lion PEASANT denoting national
ity, the leopard's head showing the
approval Of the London goldsmith
companies authorized to pass on the
quality, and, after 1884, the SOW
ereign's head. If the silver was not
up to the required standard, the
articles were liable to forfeiture.
When silver was brought by the
owner to be remade into other ves-
sells, the goldsmith escaped the OBJ
legations of having them assayed
and hall-marked, as there was no
penalty. Consequently some genu-
inc English plate is without hall
marks.
The Colonists followed the Eng
lish custom in placing upon silver
their initials to denote ownership.
Where the piece was jointly owned
by husband and wife it was Gus
tcmary to place the first letter Of
the surname above the first letters
Of the Christian names Of husband
and wife. Toward the end of the
eighteenth century the marking was
in script, with the initials entwined,
in the same order. The marking is
by no means infallible; neither can
the dates found on early silver be
relied upon.
