Hello!
I have a rather interesting example - a vodka cup made in russian style and with marks similar to Russian (height about 7 cm), but this is not state hallmarks of Russia. Maybe, it's Harbin?
Thank you in advance.

In my eyes it looks like fake marks, simulating Russian marks. There is no sense in the marking, at least not regarding Russian standards.

Hi,
There was secondary (auxiliar) kokoshnik mark (both circular and less common vertical oval) in composite objects,but never as solitary mark without assayar`s initials.
Besides,left facing was used for a very short time.That makes this set of marks suspicious, as always when we see something for the first time.
On the other hand,the object and the engraving look genuine.
In a word, I am not to judge easily the authenticity in this particular case.Because I haven't seen everything.
Regards

Hi!
Thank! I agree, here is an imitation of Russian marks, but the vodka cup is Russian exactly))) And I assume, it was made in immigration…
Sincerely, Elena.
