The mark on these spoons is not typical of David Andersen, but appears to have all the essential elements:
The mark appears on the backs of a set of six enamelled spoons in a presentation case marked for retailer in Bergen called Iversen, which still exists.
There is some damage to the enamel on one spoon, but otherwise just in need of a clean.
I am guessing, but think these may date from the 1920s. Does that sound about right?

Hi,
Definitively before 1925.

Thanks AG2012. I'd hoped as much.
Re: David Andersen (?) Enamel Spoons, Year?
I haven't been able to find anything else by David Andersen from this period that appears to be of a similar style or design. Are these spoons unusual, or am I just looking in the wrong place?
Re: David Andersen (?) Enamel Spoons, Year?
Hi,
Right, this pattern is quite unusual (rare) and could be very early production.
R.Iversen (retailer) is also very old and cannot help for precise dating.

That's wonderful, thank you Cheryl. I too have spoon envy - they're not mine!
Thank you also Dognose for sowing the advert. That explains the design of the David Andersen mark.
