==History==
The company, which as Viners Ltd., grew to be the biggest cutlery manufacturer in England after World War II, was started around 1901 by Adolphe Viener (also spelled Adolph Weiner when he was knighted by the Crown) and his sons. They were silversmiths who initially worked in traditional small workshops. The hallmark for Viners Ltd. silver was registered to son Edward Viner: in 1932 it was "E.V" with figures and in 1964, it was "EV" with associated figures.〔("HALLMARKS OF ENGLISH SILVER/MAKER'S MARK IDENTIFICATION" ), Silver Collection website, accessed 23 March 2014〕
