Need Help identifying Country, date & Maker Please

Small spoon like a sugar spoon with decorative handle ending in an animal face. The top of the handle is decorated with small angel with bow & arrow. Stamped 835 on what looks like a sword with maker's mark which I can't make out.
Any information is very appreciated.
Thank you!

Your spoon is Dutch, 1953+, can't help with the maker. The form is based on old Dutch cream spoons (roomlepel), they're often called "monkey spoons" in the U.S.
