A matching pair of Georgian Dublin silver tablespoons, hallmarked in Dublin in 1826 by silversmith and flatware maker Charles Marsh, brings traditional sterling silver serveware to the modern dining table. Each piece in this sterling silver pairing exhibits a reflective silver colour with visible signs of light historical wear on the polished surfaces. The design includes an egg-shaped bowl that forms a point at the end, a long handle, and a flared terminal featuring an engraved owner monogram on the front. Additional visual details comprise the ridged rat tail design on the rear of the spoon well and the subtle curved profile of the handle terminus. Measuring 23 cm high and 5 cm wide, these tablespoons function practically as serving utensils on a dining room sideboard top or within a display cabinet. They integrate smoothly into an English Country House interior styling scheme for everyday use or special occasions.

FAQs

Georgian Irish silver flatware, produced between 1714 and 1830, is renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, well-proportioned bowls, and distinct regional hallmarkings originating from Dublin and provincial assay offices.

These pieces were crafted from sterling silver, an alloy consisting of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper, hand-hammered to create resilient and elegant utensils.

Authentic pieces feature a clear set of hallmarks, including the Hibernia mark, the crowned harp, a specific date letter, and the makers initials stamped near the top of the stem.

Pair antique silver spoons with contemporary tableware on a formal dining table, or display them in a glass cabinet or framed display box to add refined historical texture to a sideboard.

Clean silver using a gentle silver polish and a soft cotton cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips or dishwashers, and store items in anti-tarnish fabric bags to prevent oxidisation.
