That's an entry level, basic thumbplate system Schreiber-built Buffet - they were usually called Buffet Artist oboes and were numbered 4120 (with nickel plated keywork) and 4121 (with silver plated keywork).
They were mainly made for the UK market, just as Bundy oboes were made with basic thumbplate system to low Bb for the UK market.
The Howarth S10, B&H Regent and Ward & Winterbourn TW1 oboes are the same spec (basic thumbplate system to low Bb with LH C-D trill and simple 8ves) as this Buffet.
