I bought this old gravy bowl years ago in a second hand store it does have hallmarks the makers mark is WS The close I could get is below. If somebody know more would be great and if there is any value. Bottom is a little bent as you can see in the pictures.

That little bend at the base is an easy fix. Yes, of course it has value. However, you would need to have it valued by a licensed appraiser.
... or is that mark even earlier ?? 1825 ... just checking. The head looks different to Victoria's.
