Could this be it!

German made but bearing import marks for Chester.

I can't see the date letter but it is going to be around 1900 or therabouts. Maker Berthold

Muller who was a prolific german importer to England at this time. It is
actually a copy of a type originally made by a London silversmith called
Schuppe in the 1760s.
