Antique French silver plate ladle in fitted box Lion hallmark stamp

A beautiful antique silver plated ladle in a fitted box with ruched apricot satin interior. Stamps to either side of the bowl one I cannot make out the other is a lion with the letter VH, The lion with "VH was registered for the "Societe Generale de Banques en Guinee coutellerie et Orfevrerie, Francois-Frinnot, Succ." not sure if Societe is the successor of Francois-F or the other way round. The box has a little bit of outside storage wear and there is a mark under where the label sits on the material otherwise in very good to excellent condition. Its a super thing and nice to have the box

Measuring 32 cm long x 9 cm in diameter at the bowl approx
