The French eagle topped spoon:
https://www.antiquers.com/threads/spoon-paris.67452/
The spoon below that is a Dutch silver spoon with an Art Deco design. Dutch sword mark.

Below the Art Deco looking spoon is another Dutch one, the one with that elegant little hook. It looks like it is a 'roomlepel', a cream spoon.
It has the lion mark with a 2, used between 1814-1953 for .833 silver.

I'll see if I can find some makers for the Dutch spoons. In the meantime, could you clean the sword mark on the Art Deco looking spoon so we can see the details?

 

Sorry and thank you for removing

 

Yes it is a letter opener

 

how to clean?

 

Maybe this pictures helps

 

If you don't have a silver cleaning cloth, maybe try some alcohol on a q-tip or on one of those wooden cocktail sticks.
Thanks for the additional photos, butwe really need to see the 'inside' of the sword mark. Sword marks have very small differences depending on the period.

@Hi2022 are you Dutch by any chance?

 

Yes im Dutch

 

In dat geval, welkom bij het forum.
If you need any help posting in English, just post it in Dutch and I will translate it for you. Try to, anyway.

 

Dankjewel Amy ! aardig van je

 

Ik heb met alcohol geprobeerd schoon te maken maar beter wordt het niet.

 

"I tried to clean it with alcohol, but it doesn't get any better" (just a translation for the others)

Soms knapt het al op van een badje met een beetje afwasmiddel. Als het dan nog niet goed is, kun je het met een beetje Cif o.i.d. op een cocktailprikkertje proberen schoon te wroeten.

Looking at it again, I think it is the sword for 1906-1953, which is consistent with the period. Dutch Art Deco is mid 1910s-1940ish.

 

. Is it silver or silver plated?

 

I love Dutch. That word for cocktail stick....!

 

Looking at the shape, I suspect it is a Frisian roomlepel. Frisian silver is collectible. Are you from the North?

 

Now try and pronounce it.

We use a lot of diminutives, which end in 'je', 'tje' or 'ke', that is what makes it even more fun.
'ke' used to be 'ken' and is like 'kin' in some older English words.
