Could someone please assist with identifying the marks on this perfume bottle. Sorry it is faint and hard to see .. the silver is quite worn. Thank you in advance.

Hi again... yes the style of the item suggests 1930's to 60s and the mark is for... shield on the right London.... silver standard mark the lion..... and the 'T' for the date as recorded in all marks books covering this era. Best wishes, Mike.
