[QUOTE="nastina.nastea, post: 10308727, member: 81895"]The Polish marks could be for import goods. If it is OK maker's mark, then one of the known was Orest Kurliykov (Орест Курлюковъ), however he was working more with silver (I have attached an article about him). It is tricky with maker's marks, there could be several makers with identical initials in the different parts of the empire and sometimes the only difference could be a dot between letters, or a shape of the frame around mark. So to identify the maker you should look at it in a complex: initials, period of production, style, materials and techniques. I have found like 3-4 different makers for OK combination only, and it would be the same for OИ & ОН. It can be also an ОМ. And if we assume that O is not an o, but C, or D (cause they used both Cyrillic and Latin letters for maker's marks) then amount of potential makers raises. I have attached a catalog of the Russian marks for silver and gold of 15th to 20th century, but it is not complete. Since a gold mark is associated with Saint-Petersburg and then maybe exported to Poland, I would probably try to search which Petersburg & Polish jeweller companies were allowed to sell/buy between each other.
