    I found an old spoon today. Stamped: "L Barth & Son" on back. On top of handle is "C. Wirth" . No silver markings though. I think the spoon is probably from 1850-1890. Any guess as to who is "C.Wirth" or "G.Wirth"? Thx!

      Could be Conrad Wirth (1838-1905) a Swiss retailer of silverware. Who would be the manufacturer and who would be the retailer, Wirth or Barth, I have no idea but the time period coincide

      His full name was (Melchior) Conrad Wirth.
