Set of 3 Silverplated Dinner (Vintage: 1880-1905)

Info. provided by A.I. ~ This set of 3 is English silverplate, made in Sheffield, England, around 1880–1910. The hallmark trio — “T”, a crossed‑ or crown‑like emblem, and a pattern mark — matches the Thomas Turner & Co. or Thomas Ellin & Co. marks used on plated cutlery during that period. Both firms were prominent Sheffield makers producing high‑quality electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) flatware. The hallmark sequence — “T”, crossed , and a crown‑like emblem — matches Thomas Turner & Co., a Sheffield manufacturer active from circa 1850 to 1930. Turner’s marks often featured a boxed “T” followed by symbolic punches representing quality and origin. (They are approx. 9 long) These were most likely produced between 1880 and 1905, during the late Victorian to early Edwardian period. This was when Turner’s factory specialized in electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) flatware for export and domestic use. Individually, these are modestly valued — about $10–$20 each depending on condition. A matched trio with visible hallmarks and intact handles could fetch $40–$60 from collectors or vintage tableware enthusiasts.
