Hello all. I found this French .950 silver tumbler hallmarked with a Minerve 1titre mark. But I cannot identify the silversmith (orfèvre). The small lozenge shaped mark portrays an animal in the center, perhaps a wolf or a lamb, I cannot tell. Together with two letters with the letter F being at the end. I cannot make out the first letter. Your help would be much appreciated.
