Not even sure if it is Russian maybe Eastern European , Silver or not ? There is a Hallmark but after searching I wasn't able to identify the markings . Magnet doesn't pick it up , where the glass use to sit is nice silver color . Thanks

MHU is the initials for the Cyrillic spellings of Copper Nickel and Zinc. This would be a silver plated piece.

Russian Silver Tea Glass Holder - Hallmark Identification

I am hoping one of you guys can identify this piece. I know it is a Russian Tea Set, but what are the markings? It is a key, with a duck or goose inside with the letters HMU as well.
