It has very distinctive lines scribed round the edges. I have the spring that pushes the lever back and the original screws to attach it to the front of the safe.

Does any one know what it would of looked like and how the mechanism works? My knowledge is quite poor around escutcheons.

Hi Russell,

It's off the small cast steel safe that I posted and you commented on (thread moved to caskets / chests threads, I consider it a safe!). You said maybe a Carron's, although Carron's that I have seen have their name on the inside of the door. Although the workings and markings actually look very similar to a thread you commented on "Interesting escutchoen" by Locksafe on 25/04/11.

Thanks for your help,
