This set of four heavy Scottish silver large size serving spoons dates from the Georgian period in the English Country House style. Each piece is made from sterling silver with a reflective silver finish and smooth texture. The set displays plain stems with no initials or crests, upturned handles, and deep oval bowls. Hallmarks appear for Edinburgh 1806 with maker marks for Robert Gray and Son. The spoons show minimal wear and display a clean, polished appearance across their solid surfaces. Each serving spoon measures 23 cm in length. These antique utensils suit practical display on a sideboard top during formal dining or as part of a traditional silverware collection in a modern home.

FAQs

Georgian period silver serving spoons are defined by simple, elegant forms such as the Hanoverian and Old English patterns. They typically feature elongated oval bowls, slender stems, and refined terminal shapes designed for functional table use.

Traditional British silver flatware is manufactured from sterling silver, an alloy containing 92.5 percent pure silver combined with copper to increase durability and strength for daily use.

Authentic British silver is identified by official hallmark stamps, which include a maker mark, a purity mark such as the lion passant, a town mark indicating the assay office, and a date letter signifying the year of production.

Antique silver spoons can be displayed inside modern glazed cabinets, arranged on dining room sideboards, or incorporated into formal table settings alongside neutral linens and contemporary tableware.

Sterling silver should be cleaned using a specialised, non-abrasive silver polish applied with a soft cotton cloth, followed by rinsing in warm soapy water and thorough drying to prevent tarnish build-up.
