You show the silver standard and guarantee marks for 1809-1819. The maker is L.N. Alban, flatware maker, working in Paris at 6 rue St-Eloi, then 10 rue de la Tannerie after 1821. Alban registered in 1814. No end date is given, although he is mentioned in the Almanach Azur until 1821. Based on Alban’s working dates and the marks on your silver, you can date the object fairly precisely from 1814-1819.
Marc Parraud (b.1877-d.1944) Working as from 1903.

He had studied at Maison Dubret (under father and son Charles and Henri Dubret) in Dijon, and became one of the most important and prolific makers of tastevins and marriage coupes of the 20th century. From 1927 he was assisted by his wife, C. de Soubeyrand, a talented engraver. He died in 1944.
It is frequently mis-spelled Parrot, Perrot, Parraud, etc.
