Any assiatance is very much appreciated.

 Looks like the British Coat of Arms - 

lion and unicorn supporters with a central 

garter on which is HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE lettering.

 I did notice at the top of the first picture is either   C R   or   G R   either side. 

Then wondered if the British Museum might have it - and they do. 

It was made in 1662 in Germany
