Silversmith Robert Rait was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1807, and was listed as a Jeweler, Silversmith, and Retailer in New York City from 1833. He passed away in 1869. His brother appears to have been David Crichton Rait, a well-known silversmith in Scotland. This mark is interesting because the R. Rait is stamped over another mark. They also worked exclusively for Tiffany & Company after 1851. In 1868 silver laws were passed requiring silver to be marked Sterling or 925, or Coin. Before that year it wasn’t as regulated, and coin silver was often not marked as such. Coin silver is less pure than sterling, but can be up to 90 percent silver. Check out this one by the same company, but a few years later while working for Tiffany & Co..
