Hi,

The spoon marked Kittlitz is from Königsberg in East Prussia, Germany (today Kaliningrad), It is marked with the Kittlitz' maker's mark and a year letter and the town mark combined with fineness 12 Loth = 750/1000 pure silver.

In my opinion the other two spoons are also German.

Hope this helps,

Best regards/JAKJO

Hello

Kittlitz "workshop" was 1903 still active as retailer:

Address: A. Kittlitz, Inh. (owner) A. Steffelbauer, Gesekusplatz 1, Königsberg (in Prussia).

But look also to this new discussion topic in «925-1000» on "handmade? " cutlery (especially spoon !):
