An unusual Swan and crown hallmark/stamp

Please could anyone help me identify the swan mark I have tried but can't find one like this anywhere and the second one also which could possibly be a crown hallmark mark.
Thank you for looking.

Who is this Russian Silversmith 'S.T', 'A.K over 1832'

I've looked through the Russian Silversmith initials on line, but can't find an 'S.T'?? The 'A.K' - 'A' is more of an inverted 'V', is over '1832', and possibly a Moscow city mark. The marks are on the back of some tea spoons which have a large shell shaped design to the bottom of the handle. Really...

Re: 830S and other marks

Thank you dognose, we've been following up on your lead, and 'Hopeakeskus Oy' is looking very likely. Don't know if their work is collectable or particularly valuable, and also difficult to date, but really pleased to have the information as it gives our piece a story. Well done, very impressive, an...

Suppose it could have belonged to off spring rather than the Count hi...
