    Hi all,

    Edited - thanks to anund:) it is the mark of Mauser Manufacturing Co!

    I'm trying to figure who this mark belongs to, looks to me like a galloping horse. The spoon is almost 6"L, local small town engraved on the bowl.
    I've found a couple that say this is the Mauser Manufacturing co mark but it isn't (I was wrong). I found one that has a Birks Sterling mark (no pat'd 07 mark though) on it, so I suspect this is from one of the many smaller Canadian companies that was bought out by Birks .
    any information appreciated
    thanks for looking:)

    I looked but came up empty. Looks like Mauser but facing the wrong way.

    Can't help with the maker. I just noticed there is a little baby bear on the bottom looking up! The detailing on this spoon is amazing! Looks very well made.

    I agree, Mauser and I wouldn't be too concerned that the mark looks to be reversed.
    But that's just me.

    One I knew off the top of my head yet I’m much too late. Lol. Mauser sells a little better than most sterling makers I’ve found. Nice spoon.
