Either German or Danish. A child's spoon, engraved Sophie on the front and 22=1=06 on the back. The front bright cutting is very tight and well done. The spoon has a stamped bowl while the handle is hand forged length is 5 1/8"-13cm. Any suggestions of origion would be helpful, Thank you.

I'm pretty sure this is Norwegian. I have no inormation on Solmund Freng, but it sounds very much like a Norwegian name, and the marks also look Norwegian. Hopefully someone else knows more.

The spoon is norwegian. Made by Ivar Solmund Freng in Oslo (1866-1906). The workshop ended in 1934.
