Maker:
Lion Rampant
Touch Mark 4:
Lion Rampant in Scroll, surrounded by twisted columns (this one is the makers mark)The 'London' mark maybe deceptive as many regional pewterers used this stamp in the 18c because London pewter was considered the best. Looking at the scroll in the London mark – it may actually have been made in Birmingham in the 18c. In addition Ley and trifle pewter did not carry any marks of quality. Plate pewter was marked with a letter'X' (denoting extraordinary ware), sometimes with a crown above it or was stamped with the words 'hard metal 'or' superfine hard metal' as with this item. Could date from 1800 or earlier.

Sardine dish – manufactured by Barker Brothers silversmiths in Birmingham. Planished pewter and glass. 3-piece item of tableware was aimed at the aspirational working classes and, mostly, sold through the Co-operative chain of stores. It was used to pretty up the serving of what was a staple and nutritious food, the common sardine. Sometimes these dishes are promoted as caviar trays, but I doubt that any of these items ever graced an upper crust table with pricey sturgeon eggs within.
