Afternoon All,
I won an EBay auction yesterday, HERE, and after much searching I'm still unsure what I've got.
The bulldog, made in France, has "Strand" on the left of the shank and a band marked "sterling silver", according to the seller, and confirmed in the pics.
The little apple is marked "ye old root" and appears to have Chester hallmarks (hence I put this in the British section), but I can't make out the date letter. No matter.
Does anyone know which company made the "Strand" pipes, and also, who made "Ye old root,"?
Any assistance appreciated, gents. Thanks.
