A tea caddy spoon is a compact silver scoop designed specifically to measure loose leaf tea from a caddy into a teapot. Emerging in the late eighteenth century during the Georgian era, these spoons were designed with shortened handles to fit easily inside tea chests.

Georgian caddy spoons were predominantly wrought from sterling silver, hallmarked at standard fineness. Craftsmen often incorporated decorative techniques such as bright-cut engraving, die-stamping, and hand-chasing directly onto the metal surface.

Newcastle provincial silver is identified by its specific assay mark, which features three castles within a shield logo alongside the makers mark, sovereign head duty mark, lion passant, and date letter.

Small silver collectables can be styled within a glass tabletop display case, arranged on a tray upon a dining room sideboard, or incorporated into a wall-mounted shadow box alongside other historical silver flatware.

Clean silver using a gentle silver foam or non-abrasive polish with a soft cotton cloth to remove tarnish without stripping original hand-engraving. Store pieces in anti-tarnish cloth bags within dry environments to prevent oxidisation.
