The markings "E" and "P" on silver flatware typically indicate the manufacturer or the pattern name, while "800" signifies the silver content. Specifically, "800" denotes that the piece is made of 80% silver and 20% other metals, which is a common standard for silverware, especially in European countries. This level of silver content is lower than that of sterling silver, which is composed of 92.5% silver.

What does the e mean on International Silver Co Flatware?
The "e" on International Silver Co flatware typically indicates that the item is made from "electroplated" material, specifically silver plate. This means that a thin layer of silver has been electrochemically applied over a base metal, which is common in silverware production. It signifies that the flatware has a silver finish but is not solid silver. Therefore, the "e" helps consumers identify the type of material used in the flatware.
