It also looks if there is a dot between the G and V. I can only find Gerrit van der Meulen from sint anna parochie, but no marks to compare.
So need some extra eyes here...
Silver spoon, maker?
Silver spoon, maker?
This silver spoon is only marked with CV or GV. Quite difficult to find the maker with only this information.

Re: Silver spoon, maker?
Silver sugar sifter, the mark
G.V in a rectangle, I believe it to be for; Greidinus (Gredinus) Tjaarts Veersema, he had his atelier in Scheemda and in Nieuwerschans in the province of Groningen, later in the town of Groningen, registered 1807-1820.
Maker's marks used; GV in lozenge, used 1812-1815, GV in square used 1815-1818, GV under flower in square, used 1818-1820. During the Kingdom of Holland Griderius used the mark G.V in rectangle, later when we were part of the French Empire he used his lozenge mark. After his career as a silversmith he became gold plater till 1826.
Gredinus ( Greidinus) Tjaard Veersema (Veertsema), born in Groningen 1769, baptized 19 Feb 1769, Gredinus, son of Tjaard Hindriks and Nantje Klasen, died in Groningen 6 Dec. 1841, age 72.
