FAQs

Caddy spoons were specifically manufactured to measure loose tea leaves from a caddy into a teapot, becoming particularly popular in the Georgian and Victorian periods as tea became a valuable commodity.

These pieces were typically forged from solid sterling silver using techniques such as casting, hammering, embossing, and piercing to achieve intricate sculptural bowl designs and handles.

Authenticity is determined by examining maker marks, standard sterling hallmarks, duty marks denoting the tax period, and the natural patination and wear associated with age.

Such items are typically displayed within glass-fronted cabinets, shadow boxes, or styled alongside other silver table accessories on a sideboard or mantelpiece.

Preservation involves storing pieces in tarnish-resistant cloth, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners, and using a soft microfibre cloth for gentle maintenance of the silver surface.
