    And the early Victorian style. This is in Art Nouveau style, but probably later, so Art Nouveau Revival.
    It is very nice, btw. Beats London fog.:playful:

    Pretty little thing, needs a good cleaning with a gentle silver polish (never a dip please!).

    Not 1977. That had the Jubilee head.

    The commemorative marks like the Jubilee heads were/are optional, though sometimes only on small pieces like jewelry and watches - still shaken that symbolic standard marks and date letters were added to the 'Optional' list twenty years ago...

    Cheryl, pretty well every bit of 1977 silver here had the head: it was such a Thing at the time. ;)

    Oh, I agree completely, very uncommon to see the 1977 Jubilee mark missing, but have seen it before, and these definitely look to be 1977 marks...
