<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 1619853, member: 56"]So far as the stand is concerned: the marks are consistent with Moscow production 1908-17. The workmaster initials are for Julius Rappaport. Most Moscow work does not have a workmaster mark, but Rappaport was an exception, so that's consistent as well. The stand would fall within Rappaport's expertise. I can say that the marks look correct so far as form and content is concerned based on the drawings I've seen, but you would need someone with hands on experience to say if the stamps look like other Faberge stamps.</p><p><br /></p><p>The roughness on the left of the hoof is worrying.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

The roughness on the left of the hoof is worrying.[/QUOTE]
