Joseph Willmore of Willmore & Co was a silversmith located in Bread Street, Birmingham, who produced a variety of items including boxes, buckles, decanter labels, flatware, fruit knives, inkstands, nutmeg graters, spectacles, trays and vinaigrettes. He registered this mark in 1797 and used it until 1844. From Aug 1834 this mark was used by the partnership of Joseph Willmore, John Yapp & John Woodward.
