I have six of these spoons. This is the best example of the marks on them. Let me know if I can provide any more info to help. I know that it's Minerva 950 silver, but I can't find the maker's mark anywhere.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

Not sure, just offering a possibility.
Henri Louis Chenailler, c.1850.



Pat.

Thanks for the attempt, but I'm pretty sure the initials are v.i.c or v.e.c.
I have another one that most of the stamp is pretty bad, but the "v" is very clear

I'm very new to all this so I appreciate any and all help.

Hi,
The letters of the mark are VeC, standing for veuve Chenailler.
She was the widow of Henri-Louis Chenailler, who died on 11 June 1859.
The widow (veuve) operated from 277 rue Saint-Martin Paris from 1859 till 1862.
Symbol : a rising sun over a star.
Regards

Thanks for the information Zilver2.

Thanks so much! Any more info you have on her would be great too! Amazing how fast you got that figured out.

Thanks again

Or maybe where I can find more info... I can't find anything about her haha.
