Hi,
I have had this for a while and always wondered what the item is and how old it is, can anyone help identify it and the hallmarks?

Hi,
It has British import marks for 1904 London but I believe that the item is older!
Thanks
Richard

Hi Richard,
Can you post an image of the British import marks, sometimes they reveal more.

Hi,
Spice tower, windmill missing (two tubular protrusions close to the top).
Not too old with millesimal fineness.
Cannot recognize marks, to be honest not even London import mark.
Cheers

Hi,
Pseudo/fantasy marks, and not that old, made turn of the 19th century. Please check for other small but proper Dutch (hall)marks.
