It looks like a maker's mark attributed to Thomas Cléricetti who registered it from 1882 to 1893 in Paris.
Hope that helps!

Hi thanks for nice tip!
I was looking for Mr Thomas Clericetti (timeline fits great) but I haven't found picture of his maker's mark, only thing I found is description of it . It say's that initials were T.C. indeed, but sign was 'une clé en sol' which means 'treble clef' . Can You let me now if YOu have any pictures of Mr T.C. maker's mark or were did You find info about him ?
Thank You for all Your help.

The image that I saw had a skeleton key in the center with T on the left side and C on the other. It was oriented with the length of the key running parallel with the longer length of the lozenge. I saw it in a quirky program I got a few years ago that is a hit or miss when trying to finding a mark but proved useful this time!

Hope that helps!

Yes that is very helpful hint.
Hallmarks and period everything holds together.
Thank You very much for help.
