Antique Georgian Solid Silver Gilt Salt/coffee Spoons with Rococo Decoration - London, 1824/7

We are delighted to offer these rare and magnificent solid silver Georgian salt spoons made in London, 1824/7 (one made slightly at a later date, identical design).

The pair are of exceptional form and Rococo design featuring fluid and ornate scrolls, leaves and floral motifs.

Despite the items being 'small' in physical size, the majestic embellishments and heavy gauge of silver used to craft these spoons are contrastingly grand and can be appreciated in hand - a very sturdy weight for its size is apparent.

Further, the spoons are fully silver-gilt adding a wonderful rich gold tone whilst also adding a layer of protection from the silver tarnishing.

The gold lustre is ideal for adding a hint of gold to a silver collection or as an eye-catching dining accoutrement when used practically.

Due to the large size of these 'master salt' spoons, they may equally be an ideal piece of silverware to be used practically in the modern day to add sugar or stir your espresso in the utmost opulence and style.

The spoons are both marked with English marks - one of the spoons does not have a maker's mark and the other is indistinct.
