Antique Solid Silver Straining Ladle

1900 - 1920
Description

This is a lovely example of a solid sterling silver straining ladle. These ladles are quite unusual, especially in this smaller size.

The ladle is clearly hallmarked on the reverse of the handle for London 1929 with the maker's mark of Josiah Williams & Co.

The strainer is slotted into the ladle and has a partial hallmark and the patent number 296612. When it is removed, the ladle becomes a standard shape for sauce, gravy or cream.

The silver is in excellent condition, with no tears, splits or dings.

Length: 13cm

Width of bowl: 5.4cm.

Weight: 42g

Complimentary gift wrapping is available on request.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Straining ladles were developed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to separate solid ingredients, such as herbs, bones, or fat, from broths and sauces prior to serving at formal dining tables.

High-purity sterling silver or electroplated base metals were standard for these utensils, chosen for non-reactive qualities, brilliant lustre, and food safety during service.

Authentic pieces feature official maker initials, purity hallmarks indicating silver content, assay office stamps, and integrated pierced grates that are either cast into the bowl or soldered securely by hand.

A silver straining ladle can be displayed as a decorative accent on a dining room sideboard, arranged inside a glass cabinet alongside vintage glassware, or styled on an open kitchen shelf.

Clean silver flatware with mild soap and warm water, using a specialized silver polishing cloth or non-abrasive paste to clear tarnish while maintaining natural patination within pierced details.
