Please help me identify this 3 piece object and any information on the mark will be helpful too. The "burner" has the flag mark. The tray and plate both have a "1" mark.Thanks very much!

Your item is a food warmer..used to keep food hot at the table. The spirit burner heats the hotplate and the hotplate keeps the food in a dish or lidded dish hot.
Made by Walker and Hall of Sheffield around the turn of the last century (c 1880 to 1910). It is made from a good quality silver plate, not solid silver. Best wishes, Mike.

I know this is a long time after your original question, but as I used to work for Walker & Hall I can add a little more information. The firm of Walker & Hall was established in 1845 and your heated trivet bears a date mark for 1908.
