Wedding band without hallmark but has markers mark.
by: Anonymous

Hello, I have my grandfathers wedding band, it’s gold in colour but it doesn’t have a hallmark to identify it as gold. It does have the makers mark, W.W.Ld, then a crown and a leopard’s head and the letter f.
I believe that they got married in 1960s as I have the original receipt of my grandmother’s platinum wedding band, but sadly not for my grandfathers.
Can anyone help me identify markings?

Many thanks.

WWLd
by: Anonymous

This hallmark refers to William Wilkinson Ltd in existence since the mid 1800s (1860), a London trader, Clerkenwell Road and Skinner Street London. The Leopard head is the London Assay mark and the Alphabetical letter refers to the year that you can look up as it changes every 25 years. The anchor on its side represents B'ham, The Castle is Edinburgh, Chester is a shield with 3 heaves of wheat and a sword (assay office closed circa 1963 and Sheffield is a rose.

garden find

And another WW L (and superscript D) ring dug up in the garden. seems to be a 'pinky' ring with a stone engraved with a dove (possibly lapis lazuli). unfortunately a piece of the ring is missing which might have had a hallmark.

My great grandfather's 9k wedding band has been passed down to me recently. I can see that it is 9k imported gold assayed in london, but the maker's mark is a mystery to me so far. W.W Ld with the d inside the L...

I was left a ring, it is good. The hallmark is strange. I wonder if anyone can help. It has W.W.L then 22 and gentury. Can anyone tell me what this means.

W.W.L
by: Anonymous

Hi Sarah without benefit of a photo the maker could possibly be WILLIAMS, Ltd. - WILLIAM WILLIAMS (Retailers & Silversmiths, Birmingham, UK) - ca 1890s - 1930s

The D right at the end is a bit higher and smaller than the letter L and looks as if it is inside the L - (these last two letters at the end stand for Ltd)

WW Ld Maker
by: Anonymous

Hi, I have a 22ct gold wedding ring of my Grandmothers with exactly the same makers initials on it, with leopards/lions head on it's side. The date letter is an itallic 'g' for 1922, which would be about the right date as she was married in 1923, but I've no idea who the maker is. Kind Regards from Sarah.
