Mystery solved..
This email did get though to me... and helped a lot..
Found other Victor Mayer items that match the mark on ours. Over time,
some maker marks evolve.
thanks much!

" VICTOR MAYER
Hallmark(s): "MV" inside a hexagonal cartouche
Information: Founded in 1890 by German designer, Victor Mayer. Most known for his
ornate, Fabergé jewelry. "
The mark looks similar. Your's has 750 stamped on it, which means 18 carat,
whereas the example specifies 18ct, but who knows - might be worth asking a
professional for an opinion.
Good luck!

UK hallmarks are leopard, anchor, rose and castle. London, Birmingham,
Sheffield and Edinburgh respectively. Most likely to be a maker's mark but I
don't know who.
This might be of use:
"Articles which are assayed and found by the qualifying office of a signatory country to
conform to the standard, receive a mark, known as the Common Control Mark (CCM), attesting to the
material's fineness. The multi-tiered motif of the CCM is the balance scales, superimposed, for
gold, on two intersecting circles; for platinum, a diamond shape and for silver a mark in the shape
of the Latin letter "M"."

Yes, I do know 750 = 18k - it is the mark to the right I need help with.
Thanks, guys!
