For Sale by Beeches Vintage
Description

Here we have a lovely Antique Sterling Silver Tablespoon from the 1700s. It would be a beautiful way to serve vegetables or desserts at the dinner table.

It was made by Thomas Eustace and it was Hallmarked in Exeter in 1781.

It’s a serving or tablespoon size. It has a beautiful Old English design with a tapered handle with a L elaborately engraved at the end. The maker’s mark and Hallmarks at on the back of the handle.

The spoon is over 240 years old and is a very special piece of history.

The Silver is shiny with light scratches and a little tarnish. There’s a very small row of tiny dents at the end of the handle and one at the end of the bowl. There are two very small dents to the bowl. You have to look very closely to see these.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Georgian silver flatware refers to sterling silver spoons, forks, and serving pieces produced in Great Britain during the reigns of King George I through King George IV (17141830), characterised by balanced proportions and hand-forged craftsmanship.

Traditional Georgian flatware was forged from British sterling silver, which consists of 92.5% pure silver alloyed with 7.5% copper for structural strength, crafted by silversmiths using hand-hammering techniques.

Authentic pieces carry official assay stamps, typically including a makers mark, the lion passant indicating sterling purity, a town mark such as Exeters triple-towered castle, and a date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

Antique silver serving pieces can be incorporated into contemporary table settings alongside modern tableware and linen, or displayed flat on sideboards within a curated collection of metalware.

Clean silver by washing in warm soapy water, drying immediately with a soft lint-free cloth, and occasionally applying a specialised silver polish with straight gentle strokes to avoid scratching.
