Silver spoon, maker?

This silver spoon is only marked with CV or GV. Quite difficult to find the maker with only this information.
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 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.
