WHAT A LOVELY SET OF EARLY 19th CENTURY SERVING SPOONS! EACH IS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY. And of a very good weight indeed and were also used for supping the soup. Here we have a quite exceptional and quite lovely set of solid silver tablespoons of quite sensational gauge and weight.Hallmarks are deep and clear. Each is assayed in London and 4 are dated 1826 (year letter 1) and 1 for 1828 (year letter n) and these are by very good spoon maker William Chawner-refer to Jackson's pocket edition page 80.The other is by maker IK and dated 1817-year letter b. This is a lovely late Georgian lot and a must have. A really delightful and scarce set! Their length is quite large at 8.75 inches. These lovely spoons are of exceptional quality and each is a most delightful piece of hefty table silver. Pattern is FIDDLE AND THREAD DOUBLE STRUCK.This is a popular and highly sought after traditional pattern. Weight of actual silver is a sublime 540 grams (17.36 troy ounces),each piece is made of very thick gauge silver throughout. The condition is superb and they are of superior quality and condition.The bowls are of perfect shape with a thick unworn rim and tip.Each is engraved with a quite beautiful and most unusual crest of a cross and always has been,definitely no erasures either. I have listed also a set of 6 dinner forks with the very same crest. read more
