Can anyone identify this Fiddle and Thread (French ?) spoon

Post by MG »

I wonder if anyone can identify this spoon.
It looks French to me but I'm not sure and I cannot identify the marks
I think it is what they call a fiddle and thread pattern spoon with no shoulders
It is 20cm long and quite heavy at 63g
There are 2 marks on the outside of the bowl
One looks like an M under a sort of an oval device
The other consists of a six pointed star over the letters PF over B
I would be grateful for any thoughts
