FAQs

Caddy spoons emerged in the mid-18th century as tea became a valuable commodity, requiring specialized utensils to measure leaves from tea caddies into teapots. Makers like Samuel Pemberton in Birmingham famously innovated whimsical shapes such as jockey caps during the late Georgian period.

These pieces were typically crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as die-stamping, chasing, and bright-cut engraving to produce intricate geometric and floral surface patterns.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks stamped on the piece, including the makers mark, lion passant for sterling silver, a town mark such as the Birmingham anchor, and often a date letter corresponding to the active period of the silversmith.

These small collectors items can be displayed on a bookshelf within a miniature cabinet, or arranged within a glass-topped coffee table tray to highlight their craftsmanship alongside modern decor.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a non-abrasive silver cloth to preserve the patina, avoiding harsh liquid dips that can strip historical surface details and engravings.
