Yes, the hallmark (the bird to the right of the word "sterling") is for 935 silver from 1922 onwards, and it was assayed in Vienna. Sorry, but I don't know who the maker was. Perhaps someone else will recognize the maker's mark.

Hi Joris, Thanks for the info, it also has a paris stamp to the under side must be the retailers, i have researched the paris retailers and your date match completely as the stopped trading in the 1920
Thanks again for your help
