    Can anyone decipher the maker's marks in between silver plate and England? This is from a pair of twisted three-arm candelabra. candelabra4.jpg candelabra1.jpg

    I wasn't sure about the I, and saw listings for anthe, but if his name is Ian, ianthe makes sense.;)

    Would IANTHE be the pattern name?

    In Greek mythology, Ianthe was one of the many water-nymph daughters of the Titans Oceanus and his sister-spouse Tethys. Along with her sisters, Ianthe was one of the companions of Persephone when the daughter of Demeter was abducted by Hades. (Thank you, Wikipedia!)

    I'm familiar with the name Ianthe because it is a well-known Liberty of London fabric pattern:
