I just found out that I have a Barbour S.P. Co. International S. Co. #5530 teapot. I have tried to find it, but no luck. On one site I found the same shape, but w/detailed engraving which my teapot does not have. Mine is plain throughout.
As I recall the teapot(engraved)had a value of approx $125.00 to $150.00.
Have pictures, unsure if too large to load. Wt. 2.8lbs with windmill and pipes on disk with #3745.
Could email pictures for discription and value help.
Could it be pre International Silver??
I have Barbour SP.Co 9553
ornate silver pitcher.
Can you suggest links to appraise it?
Thats the mark of Barbour Silver Company about 1920 when they were under international silver , not pre international silver

I have a similar one with the number 3331.
Barbour Silver Co. was organized in 1892 by Samuel L. Barbour, and others. In Aug. 1893, they took over some of the machinery and stock of the Hartford Silver Plate Co., organized in 1882 and believed to have been carried on for a short time under the name of Hartford Silver Co. When the Int'l Silver Co. was formed in 1898, Samuel L. Barbour, who had been active head of Barbour Silver Co. for several years, continued as manager of that branch (known as factory A) and was made a director of the new Co. and remained for several years after the plant was moved to the buildings formerly occupied by the Meriden Silver Plate Co. Samuel L. Barbour was born in Norwalk, Conn. about 1865 and died in San Francisco, Nov. 11, 1925. Instappraisal can give you an appraial at a very resonable fee. I have had several items appraised there and was very satisfied with their expertise and very good historical background. Hope this helps.
Did you find any info on your plate? I also have a plate from Barbour. The numbers are 5216/15 on my plate. My plate also has the date of May 25 1917. I am trying to see how much this plate is worth. Any help would be appreciated.
Sound similiar to what I have. I just found the marks on another site and that is how I found out what BSCEP stands for. My 3 pieces all have the same markings, some clearer than others. The first one is a lion with wings with the front paw raised, then what looks like a tulip-like flower, and then the arm (with sword?) rising out of the basket (or something) The other marking, unpon careful inspection, is a star-cross-star. I found a close-up picture of the marks on my pieces (that sound like yours, too) on the following site:
www.925-1000.com/silverplate Look under the initial "B" and click on Barbour Silver Co. and you will see the marks. That is all I've done so far. Have no idea of their age (5806 are on mine) or how they came into my family, or if they are of any worth. They have a floral on them, like a cherry blossom or dogwood. I would also appreciate any information. Maureen
I too have a coffee pot wiyh all of the same markings and Hallmarks, along with the no 5 5 1 1. Any info would be appreciated. I would like to sell it. contact me at BLEckhart1@AOL.com

both of these links should help the first is for replacements and the second has history and hallmark information.
I have submitted at photo & requested an appraisal for a Barbour Silverplate Repousse creamer, to no avail, as yet. I have no idea of the value, you said you have a Barbour Tea set with the creamer, what type of pattern does it have? I have found several Barbour pieces with Dutch design, mine is not.
I know from what I have read Barbour Silver Co was founded in Meridan Connetticut in 1892 & was the first company absorbed by International Silver. It was then "factory A" but continued to use the Barbour Silver hallmark until 1931.
I have been ubable to find any descriptions of the patterns Barbour Silver Co used prior to ISC merge.
The piece I have is beautiful. I would like to find more pieces like it, but, I fear it will be a life long quest. & Short of traveling to Cn. I may never get any further info.
I have a gravy boat made by them...i posted it on this site last weekend if you would like
to see it
