Description Hoove footed quadruple plate, butter, cheese dish. Can I figure out the maker because the mark is so worn down or it was never stamped properly I have tried to find one like it and had no luck so was wondering if someone may know the value it is engraved on the front and it says to Fannie I think and then grandma on the otherside update based on other signature marks I think it’s a Wilcox silver

Would you be so kind to provide additional photos? Interior, lid, handle, other engraving. Is there a quadruple plate mark? Many thanks.

I have uploaded more photos and thank you for your help with this as I have searched high and low I do know it is a Wilcox silversmith

Though your master butter dish seems to be in very good condition but missing its glass liner, there isn't much value, probably less than $100 at auction, to replace it about $200 at retail. It's a great shape in my opinion and still has its knife which so often get separated.
I think it's Wilcox,too. Probably circa 1870s - 1890s.
I hope you keep it and enjoy it!
