Please note that, the spoon's fineness in marked in promille. Jacob Ulrich Holfeldt Tostrup in Oslo was born 1.7.1806 in Hjelmeland/NO and died 1890 in Christiania (Oslo). Expressing the fineness in promille in Norway started in 1892. However, the (his) company was closed down 7.9.1992. The punch is the company's punch but not Jacob's. Moreover, there is another Tostrup i.e. Oluf in Oslo 1880-1882. Anyway, it is not his punch either. Morever 2, there is a town called Tostrup, but it is in northern Denmark, but it has nothing to do with this.
I also believe the this spoon is from a Norwegian series of flower spoons.
