Birmingham 1887/8 correct. Best wishes, Mike.

I believe you will find this is a card case and not a vesta case... if I am correct there will be no rough surface on which to strike the vestas. Best wishes, Mike.

If it is O Ltd it will be Oldfields of Birmingham ..Best wishes, Mike.

It is indeed a copy of the huge medieval anointing spoon which is used at each coronation... replicas of various sizes and material are produced at each coronation. Best wishes, Mike.
.

Any repair unless invisible would not add to the value of the box and unless you are going to use the box rather than keep it as part of a collection.. it is not worth the expense. Best wishes, Mike.
.

Possibly Haseler Bros. Sure someone will know for certain. Best wishes, Mike.

Agree it is Birmingham 1961/2.
Best wishes, Mike.

With the absence of a duty mark and the shape of the leopards head... I read the hallmark as London 1904/5.
Best wishes, Mike.

Made in London 1838/9 ... could you please post a pic of the makers mark but the correct way up. Best wishes, Mike.
.

You have what appears to be a very good quality scent bottle made by John Grinsell and Sons of Victoria Works, St Georges, Birmingham in 1888/9.
Best wishes, Mike.

The bottom part of this Georgian Patch box was made in Birmingham in 1808/9 by the famous silversmith Samuel Pemberton....... I am unable to make out the marks on the lid from your photo... could you please post some more that are a little more revealing.
Best wishes, Mike.
.

The picture is not really clear enough to make an accurate assessment... can you get a better image of the mark.. I have a collection of Mordan pencils and documentation on types/styles etc. Best wishes, Mike.
.

Suggest that the spoons are inports from the Middle or far East... The style and pattern look Indian to me but certainly Eastern. Best wishes, Mike.
.

Can I suggest you search all over the stick for other marks as those in themselves do not seem to reveal anything to me... maybe to someone else.
If there are other marks please post them. Best wishes, Mike.

Could you please post pictures of all the marks on the sword hilt to get an accurate answer. Best wishes, Mike.

On a watch case would suggest 1897/98 Birmingham... but cannot help with maker. Best wishes, Mike.

Confirm the date as 1726/27 and those are quality plates with the keen gadrooning round the edges and a beautifully engraved armorial.... Would suspect that the makers initials will be on it and would love to know who made them. Please post a pic of makers initials. Best wishes, Mike.

Thomas William Lack of Hatton Garden London worked from 1929 onwards making Boxes, cigarette cases, matchbook covers and spoons. Your case was made 1939-40. Best wishes, Mike.
.

Suggest may be an 'M' rather than a 'W' and without the duty mark is likely to be 1911-12. Anyone else?

This is a copy of the 'Anointing spoon' which is used at British Coronations. Some are made from silver and gilded and some from cheaper metals and gilded to sell at coronation time as a souvenir. Best wishes, Mike.
