Yes, you are right - the maker mark is bad. But I do not see CL. Maybe EB - Eduard Brockhusen?
Hello! This is Derpt, assayer is Alexander Shamarin (Александр Шамарин). Who is maker? Thanks in advance! http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1573888250/95a63774/28578022_m.jpg http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1573888586/7b0a412e/28578070_m.jpg http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1573888618/c060d047/28578084_m.jpg
In the 1960s-1970s, a wide assortment of Vietnamese silver items was actively exported to the USSR: trays, wine sets, teapots, tea strainers, sugar tongs, cutlery, spice sets, cigarette cases, ashtrays, etc. These items were made of silver 900, were of good quality and had a reasonable price. Unfort...
Qrt.S, you are absolutely right - this is Krollau. Unfortunately assay mark is poorly readable, and my eyes are no longer perfect ... And my second mistake - the name of Artsybashev is Anatoliy (Анатолий) but not Alexander.
Hello, ratecla ! I opened and embeded your images. This spoon was made in Moscow in 1899-1908, and then was sold in Kiev. The maker is Nikolay Pavlov (Николай Павлов) from Moscow, the seller is Yufuda Maykapar (Юфуда Майкапар) from Kiev. "ИЛ" are the initials of Moscow assayer Ivan Lebedki...
Hi Question: Pavel and Sergeij run the Moscow shop. Why only Sergeij marked with his initial (according to the rumors)? What did Pavel? Why no marked objects from him? Lack of equality? Usually they use the court supplier logo....they were very proud of that! Answer: Pavel Ignatievich Sazikov died ...
Do you believe the hallmark on these spoons is somehow related to the small hallmark on the medal? Are they all somehow related to "Imperial Court" hallmarks? I just am not sure about the hallmarks on the spoons which look like "mis-struck" hallmarks, what are we to think about ...
Hello! This is not Samson Stroganov. This is Sergey Ignatievich Sazikov (Сергей Игнатьевич Сазиков) - one of the famous Sazikov family, supplier of the Imperial Court. Unfortunately there are flaws and mistakes in the PL book ... Regards. http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1563178340/15aa7033/27210420_m.jpg ht...
Hello! The maker is R. Hertz Szyldberg (RHS) from Warsaw. He was known in 1850-1870. His trademark is "scale". Regards. http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1560428833/47b57a9c/26875068_m.jpg http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1560429081/3d0bba71/26875110_m.jpg http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1560429106/a6d27705/26875122...
This is not Minsk. This is Kamenetz-Podolskiy (Каменец-Подольский). The town marks of these towns are similar. Ivan Tschertenkov (Иван Чертенков) worked in Kamenetz-Podolskiy in 1866-1883 and never worked in Minsk. http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1560342120/d0ca88f9/26864923_m.jpg http://images.vfl.ru/ii/15...
The maker is Girsh Ravkin (Гирш Равкин) from Berdichev (Kiev assay office). He was the son-in-law of Israel Eselevich Zakhoder (Израиль Еселевич Заходер - ИЕЗ) and in 1907 became his heir. The mark Н-ИЕЗ means "Наследники ИЕЗ" - the heirs of ИЕЗ. http://images.vfl.ru/ii/1560069712/2f81b938...
