I have two sugar tongs. They have the same maker's marks. I am posting the tongs and the marks here. I hope that someone can identify the marks. Thanks.

Re: Need help with maker's mark
Hi kustakv -
the only mark in a triangel from Moscow I ever have seen is EK - unfortunately complete unknown. The maker made some nice quality objects - I own several of them - cigarette cases, suggar tongs etc. The mark shows in no sources up. I enclose 2 from my collection.
Your marks are hard to read and look overstruck. One has to look very close.

Hi Dad -
there is a certain similarity with the shown mark - but the enamel quality is in no way from Khlebnikov!He was famous for his workmanship.
Are the by you shown marks authentic? I never have seen them in natura or in books.

Re: Need help with maker's mark
Here is another Khlebnikov mark in a triangle. And I saw yet another one on internet but cannot find it now.
But I think my marks look different.

Hi all -
in auction houses the new collection of fakes show up:
Sugar tongs, enamel, all looking more or less the same - only famous names - the shown made by 11th Artel (originals look total diferent!)
Please compare the text with what you see...
Enamel spoon - only famous names - the shown made by Khlebnikov (originals look total different!)
And here again the "new" unknown mark
Be careful if you want to buy!
