    Looking for information on these marks on Russian silver spoons.
    I believe the one mark indicates Ilya Egorovich Sorokin of Odessa

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    The kokoshnik mark is about halfway down this page and indicates the dates for Sorokin between 1899-1910.

    I'm not sure if the 1903 mark that you showed is a year, or not.

    According to @DragonflyWink 's comment in a previous thread, Sorokin was the assayer, not the maker, of the spoon being discussed in that thread:

    I can't quite read the letters in the larger mark on yours. It does say Odessa at the bottom. It might be the name of a retailer? Not sure.

    I enlarged the stamp mark on the left, and made out the central word, Сыновья, which translates to "Sons" -- So it was most likely a retailer, ___ and Sons. The first letter of the first word in the mark is Д, or D in our alphabet. I can't make out the second letter, then after that looks like лик, or "lik" and there might be something after that but I can't make it out. So, D_lik(_?) and Sons, Odessa.
