An old sterling silver piece, ...or?
Trying to identify the age and maker of this sterling silver piece. If you could help me to find out where these hallmarks are referring to or can provide even more details would be great!

This is electroplated and not silver. The manufacturers were Hukin & Heath of Birmingham and it probably dates to the first part of the 20th century.

as per the other seller: Materials : Silver, Silver Plated
Origin : English
Manufacture Date : c.1885
Can this be the case?

I did say "probably". With electroplate it is often just a case of best guess.
