Stub Tail Identification

I recently got this razor set and I'm looking for identification mark and maker.
A first suggestion given was "Pistol-L" trademark used by Broomhead but its seems quite different in shape
Anyone have some idea?
Thanks in advance

Very nice! Someone will be along. We have some very knowledgeable members on French things.

Marvelous set ! The brush itself is amazing.

The razor is IMO english, around 1760-1790, with a very nice set of decorated tortoise scales. You can usually see some of these razors in 7-day set with hone, comb, in huge shagreen boxes. :-)

You should ask Voidmonster or Scienceguy, they probably will tell you a lot more about the razor / maker, and should be able to give you a more precise datation.

I may have said we have some French Members who are very knowledgeable on all things! ;)

My feeling is English, but that's just a feeling. All I can contribute is another example, with the same maker's mark (minus the text underneath BER).
