Re: 56 golden ring
Hello! Kiev, 1908-1917. I wasn't looking for a goldsmith specifically, but maybe it's M. Berstein ("МБ").

Re: Warsaw Candlestick Marks
Hello! You have written almost everything correctly. We see the stamp of the silver workshop "Б.ШКАРЛАТ" (Szkarlat) and two state stamps (oval and round) with the initials "AР" (А.Romanov). This silver workshop often made candlesticks.

Re: Beaker, St. Petersburg 1769
Hello!
According to the rules of those years, it was allowed to make silver products above the official silver sample. In such cases, the number of silver samples was marked with separate digits: 73, 74, 75, 76, 77 etc.

Re: Silver Oklad 1817
Hello!
I saw the works of the silversmith "KИ" only in 1815-1817. This is too little to identify the silversmith. Konstantin Ilyin, Kuzma Ivanov and others worked around these years, but these are only possible options.

Re: Sugar bowl, Moscow, 1844
I think that often in these catalogs there are similar cases, because the authors have not seen enough products. It was a different time. They also often misread the initials on the stamps. Of course, sometimes the silversmith worked for a short time. He could change his business, or get a different...

Re: Sugar bowl, Moscow, 1844
875 is a later Latvian mark.
All the silver products from the “ГШ” silversmith (if there really is a “ГШ”) that I saw were made only in 1844.

These are just the features of the translation: “I had to write...”. It's clear what I meant. That I should have used the word "perhaps" in my first post. https://sun9-45.userapi.com/impg/8fM46DCyxINVCppzATeCJoulDg8__fPzigOfEQ/mxEMN2LrDZs.jpg?size=771x548&quality=95&sign=a3b0f83501...

Re: Please help me identify the master?
I had to write the word “presumably” because I haven’t studied much about the hallmarks of Baltic silversmiths. However, if you look in the same book at the version of the Erich Bank mark, you can see the similarities.
Silversmiths could have many variants of their hallmarks.

Re: Fraget candlestick
Hello! This may be a very rare Fraget mark, but it may be a fantasy. I don't have anything to compare it to. The "84" stamp is of course not genuine. It simply looks like a stylization of the Russian mark. The rooster could be a trademark sign or also a stylization of the brands of France ...

Re: Help identify maker by hallmark
If you have the opportunity to photograph the hallmark (where the 84 standard silver and the coat of arms) are as large and sharp as possible, then this will be very good. You may be able to use daylight and a magnifying glass. As far as I understand, there are no other marks on the product.

Re: Sugar box, Moscow, 1783
If there is information about a silversmith for a certain year, this does not mean that the marks on the products belong to him. He could work for another master; he could only do minor repairs. He could only do silver plating. There could be another master with the same initials, etc. A simple ment...

Re: Sugar box, Moscow, 1783
Silversmith Fyodor Gavrilov (ФГ) was working in Moscow at that time. But for me, this information is not enough to claim that this brand belongs to him.
