French Spoon Circa 1800?

I guess the initials on the hallmark are D and G and it looks like a star above and some other symbol below?

Barely visible are marks used in Paris between 1819-1838: the standard mark for 950 silver (the head of Michelangelo facing right in an octagonal reserve) and the guarantee mark for medium-sized objects (a Gorgon head facing forward in a circular reserve).

May I respectfully suggest that you clean up the marks and provide in-focus pictures for additional assistance on the maker.

Hello,
The maker's mark belongs to Guillaume Clément, Paris, 1820-1837.
Symbol : a key over a star.

I fixed the camera's focusing issue, at least I hope so, thanks for the identification of the spoon!!!! :)
