These two Georgian sterling silver spice sifter spoons are table-ware items originating from London 1798. Each spoon displays a polished silver finish with a downturned stem, an engraved handle terminal, and a bowl decorated with hand-pierced floral patterns and drilled perforations. Matching crests appear on the handles, showing minor tarnishing and surface wear consistent with age. Measuring 1 cm high, 1 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, these spoons are suited for display on a sideboard top in a dining room. They function historically as sifting ladles for applying spices directly to food, bringing English Country House character to a contemporary home.

FAQs

A Georgian silver sifter spoon is a specialised item of flatware designed during the 18th and early 19th centuries, featuring a perforated or pierced bowl used to sprinkle sugar or spices over food and drink.

These spoons were hand-forged from sterling silver by silversmiths, with the intricate bowl perforations crafted using hand-piercing techniques, fretwork saws, or drilled patterns.

Authentic Georgian silver pieces feature official hallmark stamps indicating the sterling purity mark, town mark, date letter, and makers mark, alongside characteristic hand-finished details.

Place silver sifter spoons inside a glass-fronted cabinet, display them on a tray across a dining sideboard, or include them within a framed shadowbox for wall display.

Clean periodically using a soft cloth and specialized silver polish, ensuring cream residue is carefully removed from the pierced openings with a soft brush.
