HELLO ALL

Who is the maker of this small Russian (pickle?) fork? It has these 2 hallmarks & measures 11 ½ cm long.

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Two hallmarks!? It has one maker's mark and one hallmark. The maker is Gerasim Alekseyevich Mitrofanov who worked in Moscow 1908-1917. The assayer is Ivan Lebedkin.

Forgot to mention that 1908 was the last year when this left looking kokshnik was used. Mitrofanov became master 1908. Therefore we know that the spoon was made in 1908.
