Thanked: 3164Yes, almost certainly ivory scales.
There are two possibles for the mark.
First - amd most likely - the trademark probably refers to Arthur Marsh, cutler, of Eyre Street Sheffield, 1845 - 1868. At some point his "AM" mark became "A M S" - probably for Arthur Marsh & Son. Silber & Fleming, a London department store and wholesalers, either bought the trademark or promoted this line, signified by the A M S in a ribbon bow, until around 1892.
The second - and less likely - is that Silber & Fleming were originally set up as The Silber Light Co. by Albert Martin Silber - he has the same initials, but I don't think that I have seen them in a ribbon bow like the Arthur Marsh trademark. Probably just a coincidence.
