Hi.

I don't understand your question. What do you want to know?

Hi all - I recently visited an auction where this Niello spoon was auctioned. My interest was neither the artistic execution nor the artistic coat of arms - more the place of origin Veliki Oustiug. Then the big surprise for me: the highest bid was much higher than mine (you would have got 3 Fabergé...

Yes Dad, but kindly show the marks on your spoons and do note the location of them; on the side of the stem as Goldstein pointed out earlier. No problem. ....But, what for?? )) On those spoons handle is round. Assayer punched the mark where it was convenient to punch. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/...

Hello. All of you are very good and interesting people. With the Coming Christmas Holiday! )) I don't see the reasons to call these spoons a fake. Such spoons were fashionable at the end of the 19th century. It were made by many silversmiths: Ashmarin, Semyonov (and his daughter) and etc. Were expen...

Hi It are made in Soviet Republic of Armenia . 1926-1946. Makers mark containe the armenian letters " ւ " " ժ " " կ " (russian transkription л, ж, к ). Probably, it's initials of maker. Hallmarks (oval "working") containe the letter " н ". Erevan's a...

Hi.

It can't be the producer from Kostroma. Hallmarks are from Moscow assay office (letter "Δ")

One of silversmiths of the Moscow District. With initials "НА"

This is the first kokshnik 1899-1908. Lev Oleks assayed in Moscow 1889-1904 thereafter in Kiev 1905-1914 and again in Moscow 1915-1917. The maker ВЛ is from Moscow. His name is Vasily Kirillovich Lapshin, active around the turn of the century..... Hi. Not Correct. These are the Kiev marks. Lev Olex...

Hi.

I think, sun is the later addition. The main drawing - the nielo technology.
I can't define the producer - I don't see a letters in the maker mark. One of anybody....

Best Reg..

I think hallmarks are original. M. Harlap. OS - Osip Sosnkowski.

But this item is a construction from parts of an original candlestick and imagination of the immitator.

Ooooh. I already told about this example. Sclerosis. ((

Main thing: Except three marks (a name/year, fineness and the coat of arms) connected in comon poinçon, the S-Pb Mint made always separate poinçons: name/year, fineness and coat of arms.
For all assay offices.

Dad , I wanted to say that your marks are very different from those of that time period and in my opinion are highly questionable. Hmmm.... I hope, you don't think that Assay office of Wilno used only one type of punch? Then on this example you precisely will "break mind" )): https://www....

... It would be interesting to see how the short mark in connection with the full-name mark differs from the short mark on my bowl. ... Silverfan. In the Russian silver, I am never confident that I has correctly determined the producer by initials if I use only the reference book of marks. Unfortun...

[quote="Ubaranda"]Hello! I'm not the Pope and I will not argue with the respected Dad :-). I just want to show some Vilno's marks from the period 1882-1887. Information for thinking ... Regards. Information without comment - like an echo from a shot. You don't know side of shooting. What d...

Hi all - in the last Sazikov discussion we learned that Sazikov always marked large objects with his court suppliers mark (eagle mark) - small or "minor" objects only with his initials ИC, with one dot, two dots or without dots. Cutlery are small objects in my understanding - but always a...

It's original spoons. Without problems. Juke is right.

..... Here 2 products of this "artists": https://abload.de/img/01hnjzv.jpg https://abload.de/img/02w1kc9.jpg https://abload.de/img/02a6tjok.jpg Or is this also Sazikov quality? ...... Sazikov's firm existed only till 1887. Therefore your first item (after 1899) not Sazikov. The second ite...

Hi, dear contributers. I ask to forgive for my English. Also I ask not to take offense if sharply I speak. Now, one after another: There are no indisputable proofs that it is a product of factory of Sazikov. On the contrary. There are facts indicating the other. As that: During this period (and in o...
