Help identifying makers stamp (?)

Postby lumpold » Thu Jan 22, 2015 9:59 am

Hi,
I'm looking for some help identifying the makers stamp on what I believe is a post-1908 Russian silver cigarette case. I believe it was brought back to the UK by my great-grandparents (my g-g-father was a shipbuilder). I have attached images of the stmaps, front, back, and inside. The makers stamp seems to read either AKK or AKY.
Thanks,
James.

Hi lumpold -
the maker is known for making cigarette cases, unfortunately his name is unknown. He worked in Moscow from 1908-1917.
