Featured Inscription/Crest on Brittish Sterling Machined Cigarette Case

I have tried google translate and nothing seems to make sense. I thought it was Latin but any help would be appreciated! London hallmarks. Thank you! Approx. 4 x 3.25 inches.

Thank you!!! I should have thought about WIKI! Another mystery solved!!!

 

I have the advantage of living in Europe, close to the source, and having British relatives (and a smidgen of Norman blood).
Knowing French also helps, although it isn't modern French.

 

Order of the Garter and all that. Looks like it belonged to a Knight whose name started with a G.

 

Sir Gawain

 

He predated the Order by rather a lot so...doubtful.

 

a Knight.........that's cool !

 

May not be a knight, that's also used as a regimental crest.

 

I think that much more likely. Here's a previous discussion.
