Need help identifying French Hallmark?!

Hi need some help identifying a hallmark, was told it's from French but couldn't find anything similar on the page. Unfortunately that's the only photos I can obtain.

Hi,

From what I can see of your mark, it's French silver plate.

The mark on the left would be the maker's mark struck in a square cartouche, but because it is aligned slightly to one side it gives the impression of being lozenge in shape.

The mark on the right appears to read '8GR' an indicator of the amount of silver applied.

Trev.
