-At 21.5 cm, or approximately 8.5 inches, this is a standard individual place spoon, not a serving spoon.
-The pointed end is a stylistic rather than a functional feature, characteristic of the first quarter of the 19thC. Thus a spoon with this feature would have been considered “old fashioned” at the time it was produced.
-The model is called Filet in French. I can’t think of any manufacturer that didn’t make a Filet pattern. Christofle named their Filet model Chinon in recent years. Originally it was called Filet.
-While Replacements is an excellent resource, I wouldn’t give much credibility to their date of introduction of a French flatware pattern.
-Yes, as Bahner stated, the stamped 69 refers to year of production - 1869 - and not the thickness of the silver plating, which is 84, indicated in the maker’s mark.
-The maker’s mark on your spoon was in use 1862-1935. Christofle purchased the nickel silver company Alfénide in 1854. Flatware made of plated nickel silver in plain patterns was stamped with the Alfénide mark in addition to other Christofle marks until 1878, when the Alfénide mark was dropped.
There is such a plethora of Christofle marks that dating can be confusing at times.

Miss Ruth M. Egge who is directing an educational campaign for the Sterling Silverware Manufacturers' Association has just returned from a trip to Europe, where she has been making a comparative study of French and English silver in contrast to that of American manufacture. In Paris she visited Christofle, famous makers of artistic silverware, where she had an opportunity of seeing examples of the finest silverware that is being made in France today. In London Miss Egge spent considerable time in the Victoria and Albert Museum, studying early English silver and also in visiting the British Empire Exposition at Wembley.
