Someone posted photos of a watch on FB, and I'm trying to see if I can decipher the hallmarks. I see the British mark for sterling, and I think...
Visiting museums and historic homes and seeing things on display that we used on a daily basis piqued my interest. I grew up in a home filled with...
And I imagine it was probably one of a pair. No idea what happened to the other one.
