What is this? Can not identify

Have no idea what this means.

Hope somebody can shed some light on it.

Thankyou…

This is a British design registration mark. An explanation can be found here. The salient points are that the design registered is for a metal object and it was registered on 16th December 1881. The object itself must therefore have been made at some point after that date.
