Discusses a mark consisting of the Old English letters PGP, each in a scalloped shield, which appears on several pieces of silver flatware stylistically datable to the 1850s and 1860s. Attributes this mark to silverware manufacturer Peter G. Perdriaux who was active in Philadelphia from 1856 until his death in 1865.
