Scandinavian lancet serving spoons?

Some Scandinavian lancet spoons with nice engraving. I don't know the origin or age.

Hello, the double tower stands for Danish plate. Could be Kopenhagen. Best wishes, Bahner

Hello, I dimly remeber having read somewhere, that the two-tower mark was introduced around 1900, give or take a decade. So these pieces are comparatively new. My guess - just a hunch - from the last 50 years. I have seen the two-tower mark on pieces from various Danish cities, so it must have been in use nationwide, not just in Kopenhagen. Best wishes, Bahner
