Omar Ramsden (born 1873- died 1939) was a Sheffield born silversmith. He was one of England's leading designers and makers of silverware. He lived on Fir Street in Walkley, Yorkshire. He collaborated for many years with Alwyn Carr (1872-1940) but their partnership ended in 1919. Ramsden's mark used after their split was OMAR RAMSDEN ME FECIT (Latin: 'Omar Ramsden made me').[1][2][3]
