Is this mark Knickerbocker Mfg Co. or Knickerbocker Silver Company?

I've got this brides basket made by Knickerbocker and tried to date it by the mark. I know Knickerbocker Mfg Co. took over J.A. Babcock & Co. in 1894 and became Knickerbocker Silver Company sometime before 1904 and most of the marks are the Guy with the Hat. This has a stylised "K" and I wondered if this was the Knickerbocker Mfg Co. mark from before 1894. Anybody have any information on their early marks??

 

That particular K is shown in Rainwater as "Not used after 1900." Very nice frame and basket!

 

where did you find it i have a bowl but haven't yet found a silver basket to hold it. any information or hints on sites to look for it.

 

It came complete which is rare but I also have a bowl without a basket and are still looking for the basket. Auctions, sales and eboo seem to be the only options.

 

The silver part is a "frame." The glass or china part is the "basket."

 

I stand corrected.
Always thought it was basket and bowl.
