The "maker" (widow/daughter) ВБ, actually factory, is Varvara Alekseyevna Balabanova 1896-1908 and the assayer is Ivan Lebedkin 1898-1914 in Moscow.

Thank you, Qrt.S., once again.
( That was one of alternatives also, among a couple of other choices.)
Best regards,

@Atlas
Mind my asking but what other choices and based on what? I would be interesting in knowing your alternatives.
Thank you in advance.

@Qrt.S.
Actually as I now take a closer look, the other alternatives appear to be mentioned some decades earlier. So these other candidates I mentioned, are to be withdrawn with apologies.
Best regards,

@Qrt.S.
Are you sure about the family name Balabanova?
Because I found also Baladanova, Moscow, 1896-1908.
