Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A dognose spoon, also known as a wavy-end spoon, is a style of flatware popular in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, characterised by a flat handle terminating in a central rounded lobe flanked by two smaller notches.

Spoons from this period were hand-hammered from solid silver, frequently Britannia standard silver (95.8% purity) between 1697 and 1720, featuring raised rat-tail stiffeners forged directly onto the reverse of the bowl for structural support.

Authentic late 17th-century pieces display period hallmarking along the narrow stem, contemporary prick-engraved or stamped monograms on the terminal, distinctive rat-tail bowl supports, and natural hand-forged thickness variations.

These historic flatware pieces can be incorporated into formal dining table arrangements, displayed in custom velvet-lined trays on a sideboard, or presented within wall-mounted shadow frames as antique decorative accents.

Clean the silver using a soft cloth and non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dip solutions or automated dishwashers, and store flatware in tarnish-inhibiting cloth sleeves in a dry environment.
