Help ID my perfume bottle.

Here's what I have so far. Didn't know if the direction the anchor was pointing made a difference. The maker's mark also didn't look like any on the info pages, but I know marks evolve over time.

Also, is there another forum that will help identify the bottle as opposed to just the silver? Even just the silversmith's ID will help I'm sure. Please excuse the distortion on the marks, thats what I get for using a loupe as a macro lens.

Thank you in advance for your help.

What a beautiful bottle! It would look even more stunning after you polish the lid.
The date is 1886, as for the silver makers, maybe Haseler Bros.

Thank you, I didn't know if polishing it would somehow detract from the value.

Hi,
Glass is not a strong point, but the bottle does look like English Cameo glass by Thomas Webb. Suggest you give the name a quoted google search with cameo and glass alongside.
Regards, Tom
