The engraving certainly doesn't look English but perhaps more Far East than Indian??

What does the hallmark say as to age, country of origin and possible maker?

Hi All
I have attached a 2nd photo showing Hallmarks. Some years ago I had it authenticated in Perth, Western Australia. They only stated it was confirmed silver but nothing else. Happy for anyone else to have a go.

Is it possible to just see the Hallmarks.  The 2nd & 5th are not very clear

So it looks like it’s 19th-century Sheffield silver engraved with themes from (perhaps) China?

If I am correct in reading the letter mark as K then that would seem to correspond to 1877:

There is an Ivan C Boyd living at 26 Esmond Court, Kensington on 1946 ER's.   With him is listed Alice M Kingsford.

She is on her own in 1945 and 1947.
