Re: ЕП and "I. KOPF." mark on a spoon

Hi, All. I think, it is important. In the book at Postnikova-Loseva the mark of J.Kopf meets among marks of the Petersburg masters too. Hence, mark J.Kopf and Petersburg's assay mark (1908) can be together and it is normal. Who is J.Kopf - seller or silversmith in this case? I don't known.)) http://...

Re: The Russian spoons

The first break in the fiddle pattern. Arrow spoons appear in the second quarter of the 19th century. Personally consider them a representation of Romanticism because of the upcoming cup form of a heart and the arrow significance. This model has evolved in parallel with the fiddle and classical twi...

Re: Russian spoon from Moscow 1826

Hi, Zolotnik. Unfortunately, I have no other photos. I ask to notice that the spoon is old and with the "eaten" edge. My taste is normal. I wanted to tell that on a snuffbox scenes from the West European life, instead of Russian are represented. But it doesn't disturb you, isn't it? As wel...
