A pair of sugarTongs

i visited all the hallmark sites yet cant identify them.
the crown most closely resembles sheffield yet its different due to outer imprint.
next to it is what looks like a globe
then the letters D&A.

No lion.
i doubt this is truly silver.
and from what date?
i do am quite curious.

dont see how to upload images so please look in this folder:
