Bright Cut Spoon

I would greatly appreciate any help identifying the source and maker of this small bright cut spoon. I originally bought it as Scottish Provincial but am now not even certain it originates from the British Isles.

Hi Stewart,
Please could you post a photo of the back of the spoon. I find the drop is often very useful for finding out where a spoon was made.

Hi Stewart,
Everything seems wrong with this spoon. The feathering is wrong, the crest is wrong, and the drop is not quite right.
I'll stick my neck out and say it wasn't made in Britain. That's almost 1% of the world ruled out (possibly). Good luck with the rest!
