Identify Meat Dome Manufacturer

[quondam24]

I have what I believe is a James Dixon and Sons Meat Dome with platter that can be filled with hot water. I'd like some help with ID. Haven't found an exact match in the catalogue.
What does FPN mean?
What do the numbers 85 and Letter I mean?
Any help with age would be appreciated.
Thanks

That's one of the early marks used by James Dixon & Sons of Sheffield.

A slightly clearer image of the mark:


I D & S PN/S

PNS - Plated Nickel Silver

The other marks are internal factory order/batch/pattern type marks.
