The mark of Mikhail Ovchinnikov first appeared in 1888 after the death of his father, the celebrated silversmith Pavel Ovchinnikov. Mikhail was the eldest son of Pavel Ovchinnikov and took over his father's firm, also continuing to use the previous marks of Pavel Ovchinnikov with the Imperial warrant.
