<p>[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 249192, member: 2844"]There was an assay office in Kiev. In those days most cities and towns had an assay office for precious metals. Not only silversmiths from Kiev could take their silver to be assessed and marked, but also silversmiths from the surrounding area. These could have been people with a small silver workshop, with maybe just a boy to assist them, or a small family business.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
