FAQs

Popularised in the late 18th century, a jockey cap caddy spoon is a novelty sterling silver scoop fashioned in the shape of a jockeys riding cap, designed specifically for measuring loose tea leaves from a tea caddy.

Georgian caddy spoons were primarily crafted from solid sterling silver, often featuring hand-engraved, bright-cut, or chased decoration to simulate fabric textures and panels.

Authentic pieces bear hallmarked impressions including the makers mark, lion passant for sterling silver, a town mark such as London, and a date letter corresponding to the late 18th or early 19th century.

These small decorative silver objects are frequently displayed inside glass showcase cabinets, arranged on silver trays upon sideboards, or styled alongside antique wooden tea caddies.

Maintain silver by gently washing in warm soapy water and polishing with a soft lint-free cloth and specialist silver polish to prevent oxidisation without removing detailed surface engraving.
