Hi,

I initially thought this small pair of nips were made in Birmingham. They are marked sterling on one side, while on the other there is an anchor, a mark I can't decipher and a lion passant. Does anyone have any ideas on their origin?

Many Thanks,
Martin.

Thanks Trev, that was amazingly quick.

Looks to be Louis XV pattern.
