As promised, the extra photos of the other items marks.

I believe the 2 marks at the beginning, they're pretty worn but look like HM to me.

Look forward to finding out a bit more about them, thanks, Jess x

Thank you for your responses, Are these real silver then?
Thanks Jess

They are English hallmarked silver, but they look like a dressing table set, hairbrushes from the photos, if so, they are silver mounted.
