Some company name is also there with Ld at end but can't figure out.

Please be kind to share your views and help.

Assayed in London.

Date is 1925.

Maker's mark is rubbed - looks to be "?" Bros Limited.

Please don't ask about value - if you want a valuation, commission a valuer to do it for you.

I feel a fair candidate for your piece is S Blankensee & Son Ltd with the mark S.B & S. LD the D being superscript. The piece is certainly consistent with other pieces I've seen from them. At times the company has had items marked in a number of styles in London, Birmingham, Chester and Sheffield.
