That is a really nice piece. There are some fine elements there but I can't be of any help on the marks. The blade steel appears to be crucible/cast steel.


There are some details that seem to last centuries. The guard profile is adopted on US militia swords. There are a variety of the cruciform bow ties.

Cheers
