F. H. &. Ld, Alison, Anchor & Letter n on Silver Pendant
by: Yvonne

Maharba,

Thanks for reaching out, I am so glad you found us!

Your pendant's hallmark could have faded over time and most likely reads F.H. & Ld (for F.H. Adams Ltd) or F.H.& Ld (for F. Hawker Ltd). Both were prominent British Jewelry and silversmithing companies based in Birmingham.

The Lion (Lion Passant), the walking lion mark is the British and Irish standard guarantee for sterling silver. It means the silver in your pendant has a purity of 925 parts per 1,000 (or 92.5%) is the traditional guarantee for sterling silver (92.5% purity), the anchor shows the item was tested in Birmingham, England, and the letter 'N' is a date letter that identifies the exact year, the piece was assayed.

With care,
Yvonne
The Vaulted Shelf
