Would the O. Domaas on this serving spoon be the Odin Domaas currently based in Trondheim, and any ideas of dating? Has the prick-engraved initials of a couple at the top back. Thanks!

Yes it is Odin Domaas in Trondheim. Started in 1885 and is still going on.
I think it is made ca. 1895 - 1910.

Thank you Tosten! Fortunate to have a pair of these, acquired several years ago, I particularly like the sweet engraving (have dozens of spoons with various lily of the valley motifs). My early 1940s flatware pattern is Scandinavian-inspired, made by an American company, but the bulk of my serving pieces are early to mid 20th century Scandinavian (mostly Norwegian). Always such lovely designs and quality, also like the sturdy 830. silver.
