Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

That is indeed the mark of William Comyns. At this date, 1890, the firm were known as William Comyns & Sons (William Comyns, Charles Harling Comyns and Richard Henry Comyns).

William Comyns died in 1916.

Yes 1890, See: http://www.925-1000.com/dlLondon15.html#M

They are glove stretchers, they were used for expanding the fingers of tight kid ladies gloves that were fashionable at this period.
