Japanese Audubon pattern from Germany

Dear Sirs,
Could you be so kind to identify the producer? Maybe you know about the design of this German spoon? Something similar exists in the Audubon collection of Tiffany & Co.
Spoon 41gr, 18,5cm.
Thank you.

Re: Russian box

I did not make any statement if this item was fake or not: I do not have enough information to do it.
By the way I made a comment about your statement on marks as I have enough knowledge about Grachev’s history and works.
There is no any “mess” with the posted hallmarks. On contrary they are all ...

Re: Russian box

First of all this information about the hallmark is not true: this is an accurate hallmark of Grachev factory before the 1892. Between 1892 and 1895 it was used with an eagle.
By the way the state hallmark on your item is quite strange for the shape of the numbers.

Re: German tea spoon

Thank you for the information. But maybe you know about the shop/company HILLER? With the city or region it could be easier to make a research for the cost of arms. 🙏


The crown above the coat of arms tells that it belongs to an untitled noble (Adel) family (so not counts of barons etc.) which ...

Hi guys!
Maybe you can identify the retailer and the model number of this tea spoon? Eventually you could advise where I can search for the coat of arm?

Re: Uncommon mark

The information that Peter Rykovsky has been working for Ovchinnikov is new. Did you ever seen their hallmarks together? Could you please share your information? Also Rykovsky is listed in Moscow address books in 1898 and 1899.
Thank you!

Re: Uncommon mark

Hi!
It concerns the assayer Alexander Romanov, active in Moscow (1886-1894), later in Riga (1895-1898), Varsovie (1899-1904) and after 1904 in St.Perersburg.
The producer - Russian П.Р. - should be Pavel Rybin or Pyotr Rykovski.

Re: Russian spoon Moscow?

Hi! The letters should be EC (2453-2455). But anyway these are all for Unknown maker specialized in spoons production according to PL.




The townmark is very worn but the assayer is clearly AK = Andrej Antonovitsh Kowalsky 1842. Maker is F.C (or F.G). The only match I found in PL Moscow was No ...

Silver fork with “Bear” hallmark

Dear Sirs,
This silver fork has a clear Russian silver 84 hallmark for the imported goods dated between 1899-1912. By the way the producer hallmark is a bear - it does not look like a Swiss hallmark and it does not have any city mark around. Could it be a Berlin producer? There is no any other ...

Would you mind show some better pictures of the marks only. What can bee seen now is too many marks i.e from left German marks, Soviet maker's mark, a ??? mark and another Soviet mark (worker's head 1927-59).
BTW.
What makes you think it was exported to Soviet ??? (Soviet importing silver ?!) In ...

German silver fork

Hi guys!
Could be so kind to identify the producer of this silver fork? It was exported to Soviet Union and received local state hallmarks. Maybe somebody knows the model’s name.

Hi guys?
is it possible to date this kind of Werner hallmark? Did they have different hallmarks during their existence in Berlin? And is it possible to identify the German cost of arms with these 2 animals (maybe
Beavers?!). Thank you
