Hope these photographs work.

Can anyone tell me anything about this silver ashtray. I can't remember where it came from. It has been in my loft for 30 years or more.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Both of your links are mark images. Can you post an image of the piece?

Embedded images get a far greater response than just posting links.

I believe that's the mark of Luen Wo.

Once the photo of the maker's mark is rotated 180 degrees, it becomes LW.
