French Maker's mark on a silver cup

Hi,

This little cup has the following maker's mark on it and I wondered if anyone out there happens to know it.

Hi Monte,

Can you have another attempt with the maker's mark? Try cleaning it with hot soapy water and a cotton bud to remove the build up of silver polish and then capture an image in daylight using the macro feature on your camera.

Hello Monte,
The mark belongs probably to Charles Bourdin, 76 rue Quincampoix, Paris, who was active during the period 1887-1901.
N° de garantie : A9894
N° de préfecture : 10402
Symbol : a cabinet secretary, piece of furniture (un secrétaire, meuble).
Kind regards
