Swiss spoon with pseudo-marks?

[Serg1975]

Hello!
I used the resources of the forum and found a topic with similar marks.
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=30797&p=76661&hilit=spoon+swiss#p76661
J. Bossard - Lucerne.
Engraved on the shield - "Freiburg"
Question: Am I right?
Is the spoon right at that time or is it a constructor and a knight does not match the design (later fake)?
Thank you.

Hi,
The spoon was made by Atelier Bossard , late 19th or early 20th century. Not a ``constructor``, there is no profit in faking Freiburg souvenir spoon.
Bossard, Johann Karl
Born October 11, 1846 in Luzern, died December 17, 1914 in Luzern. The son of silversmith Johann Caspar Balthasar. Having spent several years in father`s workshop he continued education in Genf, Paris, London and USA. Workshop/atelier was established in Luzern. Since 1880 shop and antiques collection were located at Zanetti-Haus, Weggisgasse, sold and demolished in 1914.
He made old style silver with different sets of marks.

An educated guess, or maybe just a shot in the dark:
We see a soldier dressed in late medeval armor, on a tower, trowing a stone. Maybe a relation to the siege of Morat in 1476 prior to the famous battle? Morat is in the canton Fribourg.

Hi,
Well known Swiss military tactics. Stone throwers.
Invincible!
Cheers

I, frankly, did not attach importance to the engraving of the city of Freiburg.
Because the history of medieval Europe is very rich, any large city could be under siege.
If this spoon is related to Freiburg, were there other spoons-cities?
Or on this spoon applied any buyer's required city name?
Thanks for the tactic.))))

The spoon is likely one in a set, one spoon for each Swiss canton and/or half canton. Usually 22 or 24 spoons. See also the sample in the picture, taken from "Weltliches Silber 2" from the Swiss Federal Museum. If so, the spoon represents the canton Fribourg, not its capital, the city of Fribourg. (Canton and city have the same coat of arms). And if so, in the fashion of the time around 1900, something heroic had to be added (the stone thrower).

Thanks, Jörg!
A clear explanation, perhaps, represents the canton, not the city.
I will say one thing, despite the openwork and details, the spoon is comfortable.
Keep in hand is convenient, like any Swiss hand tool.
