FAQs

A caddy spoon is a specialized, short-handled silver utensil designed to fit inside a tea caddy for measuring loose leaf tea into a teapot. Introduced during the late eighteenth century when tea was a luxury commodity, these spoons served both functional and ceremonial purposes at the tea table.

Victorian caddy spoons were predominantly produced from solid sterling silver stamped with official hallmark standards. Craftsmen used techniques such as die-stamping, hand-engraving, and bright-cutting to decorate the bowls and handles with botanical or geometric designs.

Authenticity is verified through British silver hallmarks, which include the makers mark, the lion passant for sterling silver, the town mark, a date letter, and the monarch duty mark. Pieces crafted in 1838 feature the sovereigns head duty mark along with distinct silversmith initials.

Small silver objects can be styled on a sideboard top alongside framed artwork, arranged inside a glass display cloche, or presented on a mirrored tray with vintage tea service accessories to add a refined historic accent.

Maintain sterling silver by gently washing it in warm soapy water and thoroughly drying it with a soft cloth. Use a specialized silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish, avoiding harsh chemical dips or abrasive creams that can wear down delicate hand engraving.
