The copper plate has no maker's mark. It is close in size to Furniture Shop 278, which is a similar subject and date.
The plate was in Whistler's studio at his death and was bequeathed to Rosalind Birnie Philip (1873-1958) who gave it to the University of Glasgow in 1935. It was cancelled posthumously with a diagonal line across the lower left corner.
