Hi Tony,  ;)

I believe that L & Co is Liberty & Co. or Ledsam and Vale.
Women wish to be loved not because they are pretty, or good, or well bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves.
(Henri Frederic Amiel 1821-1881, Swiss Philosopher, Poet, Critic)

I did think that originally but I took it up to the Antiques Roadshow and they couldn't recognise the mark so I don't think it's Liberty.

Ledsam and Vale is a possibility though. However, see here> Ledsam and Vale. This one has a dot under the "o" where as mine has a line under the "o". Maybe they changed the mark for silver plate?

Thanks, I still have this tazza or bowl, and just found this mark described as Liberty & Co here...

I bought it hoping it was Liberty and the shape certainly looked the part, it looks like something they would make. :)
