I have these 6 oval trays that are brass and appear to have some silverplate remaining on them. I believe they are from Iran. Can anyone help identify this mark? Thanks! Peter

Hi. I have several brass samovars bought in Iran and they all have similar marks. The writing is Russian, so that would be the place to start.

I am a russian speaker: above the Two Headed Russian Imperial Eagle
there is an inscription Tovarishtchestvo(Society) on the left and Kompanija(Company) on the right-the latter partially rubbed. The dates confirm that the wares originate from old Tsarist Russia. I hope that it helps.
