I obtained the item here recently and know little about it. I believe it is a Sterling silver Match Case and is English
. Can someone assist with explanation of the marks by the maker and estimating the age. Thank you

This is a Birmingham hallmark for the assay year 1894/95 and with the maker’s (or sponsor’s) mark for Minshull & Latimer.
The marks are M&L for the sponsor, anchor for Birmingham, date letter u and lion passant for sterling silver.
