Pair of antique solid silver spoons, Minerva hallmark and silversmith’s mark

  

Magnificent set of two antique table spoons (or large dessert spoons) in solid silver, adorned with a very beautiful chiseled monogram on the back of the handle (interlaced letters in an Art Nouveau / 19th-century style, evoking an "L" or an "S"). The design is classic, elegant, and timeless, in the "Vieux Paris" or "Filet" style. Material: Solid silver (tested and certified by the hallmarks). Visible hallmarks (see detailed photos):?

Quality mark: The head of Minerva in an octagon (guarantee of French solid silver, 1st standard 950/1000). Silversmith’s mark: A diamond shape with the initials E. (or similar) surrounding a symbol, guaranteeing the work of a French master silversmith. Decoration: Superb engraved monogram on the back.
