My father was born in Schleswig Holstein in northern Germany. I have inheirited two large table spoons marked HERLUF HANSEN 800 with a hallmark that resembles the figure on a road sign indicating a winding road. I think he brought these from Germany in the early 1900's. Does anyone recognize this silversmith and know where and when he worked. Due to limited reference material locally I have unable to make an identification

Can you provide a photo of one of the spoons and the mark? This may enable us to identify. Our German silver reference books are in German which we do not speak or read, so pictures are a big help.
