The maker's marks correspond to the silversmith John Round & Son (or John Round & Sons Ltd), a famous company founded in Sheffield that regularly registered its marks also with the Birmingham Assay Office in order to punch marks on its pieces. The distinctive form of the letter M enclosed in this shield-type mark corresponds to the certification year 1911 (specifically in the cycle from July 1911 to July 1912 at the Birmingham Office).

In perfect condition, found in an antique shop in Hong Kong in 1998.

I punzoni corrispondono all'argentiere John Round & Son (o John Round & Sons Ltd), una celebre azienda fondata a Sheffield che registrava regolarmente i propri marchi anche presso l'ufficio di controllo di Birmingham per poter punzonare i propri pezzi. La specifica forma della lettera M racchiusa in questo tipo di scudo corrisponde all'anno di certificazione 1911 (precisamente nel ciclo che andava da luglio 1911 a luglio 1912 dell'ufficio di Birmingham). 

In perfette condizioni, trovata in un negozio antiquario di Hong Kong nel 1998.
