    You didn't mention size. If it measures around a 1 1/2 - 2" diameter, then most
    likely a napkin ring missing the silver edge for one end.

    The markings look English.
    Someone should be along tomorrow who will be able to date it and tell you the maker.

    I think it is English, the anchor being Birmingham, however, the anchor on yours is sideways. Not sure if that makes a difference.

    If you want to do research - you could try here:

    I always forget the size reference... yeah, it's 4cm in diameter and 4cm tall. Thanks, it is a napkin ring, would never have guessed.
