From the link given above: This particular set of marks has always been confusing as it is found with various sets of initials struck at the end, and sometimes with a slight variation with the marks. It may be that of a manufacturer of blanks who was supplying silver platers and marked the pieces wi...

Hi,
I managed to decipher ``William j.`` and ``London``
I suppose ``London`` indicates British origin, but lacking British set of sterling marks it`s silver plated.
It`s easier for you to identify more words.

Btw. it`s 1919.

Hi,
It was made by
Barker Brothers (Herbert Edward Barker & Frank Ernest Barker)
Barker Brothers Ltd (from 1925)

The last letter in the name is eta ``H`` It was pronounced like e in bet in Ancient Greek, but in modern Greek it`s like i in ``bid``. So, the name is EKATERINI.Could be middle name ``A`` but then difficult to tell what comes after that. Cyrillic alphabet developed from Greek, therefore similar lett...

I think the second word is family name ending with -ou ,mainly from Cyprus, but not exclusively.

Hi,
The inscription in niello is Ekaterini, a Greek feminine given name. It could be Greek, Cypriot or made within Greek colonies in Asia Minor (now Turkey).
Will try to decipher the second word, as well as stag mark.

Hello again, It cannot be restored;piece of silver was cut off. Legs can be removed.I`m not sure if the handle is genuine (most probably not) to be copied, cast and placed on the other side. Too much trouble unless it`s intended to deceive a potential buyer. You will always know what it was. Even Vi...

How about the mounting of the "diamonds"? Also correct?

Rose cut, few facets.Small, carats not counted even if bigger.Set here for decorative purposes. Otherwise nothing wrong with them. Often seen in old jewelry.
