KSIA,
Keswick School of Industrial Art,
Lake District, founded in 1884 by Canon and Mrs
Rawnsley. Copper had been mined for many
years nearby in the Lake District but operations had declined by the time the
School was founded; supplies of copper sheet were obtained commercially. The third mark
commemorated Queen Victoria’s Jubilee. |
