    Antique silver tea set

    I have recently purchased a silver tea set from an estate sale for my mother as a birthday gift. I am having and extremely hard time finding out about the silversmith mark on the pieces. I do not have any pictures as yet, but would like to see if anyone else might know, or have an idea, as to how one would go about finding such a thing.

    The mark is in a round oval with Roman Silversmith EPO. Each piece is numbered.
    If any of you could help me out, please, any help would be appreciated greatly. I would love to be able to give my mother a little history on the set, if at all possible.

    Thank you in advance,

    Hi Sissy,
    Without a picture, it is hard to know what to look for. If possible, can you provide a photo of the item. This link is for one of many sites for silvermarks. You said it was a Roman silversmith. --- Ace.

    Thanks!
