Re: Parisian makers marks late 18th/early 19th century

As the house in question appears to be that of Charlecote Park, then could the item perhaps have a connection with George Lucy? If so, could the dice have been acquired on the Continent during his European tour of 1756 and 1758? See: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/charlecote-park/features/bachelo...
