Hi Mandy,
Can you post an image of the import marks also? Some importers were recorded as dealing with particular foreign firms and sometimes working backwards can lead to a more positive identification.

Military badge sites indicate Rudolf Souval lived 1819-1899. The firm survived under new ownership and continued on in the field of militaria. Last reports circa 2008 (see photo of known shop) engaged in corporate pins type wares. [Photos posted openly on net...delete if in any violations.]
