Some firms have been identified only by tracing Registered Design Numbers at the National Archives in Kew, London.
If more information is needed on particular firms the best initial source will be the Birmingham Central Library. The information shown here and in the linked entries is generally basic but all that is known by me is included. Other names have come to light as I skimmed through the books of Registered Designs at the National Archives. The names mentioned are mostly those who marked their products, some of which may still be found second hand. During this time there were about 3,000 makers whose names appear somewhere in the annual directories.
The list includes roughly 200 of those who were in business during the 18th, 19th and/or 20th centuries. This page includes a selection of manufacturers of brass and copper items mostly for domestic use.
