FAQs

Basting spoons, often referred to as stuffing spoons due to their size, became prominent during the 18th century throughout the Georgian era. Crafted primarily for serving roasted meats and juices, these substantial utensils reflected the formal dining rituals and silversmithing techniques of the period.

Georgian basting spoons were predominantly hand-forged from sterling silver, meeting the standard purity of 925 parts silver per thousand. The pieces were struck from silver ingots, shaped with steel hammers, and finished with engraved or cast details.

Authentic British Georgian silver carries official assay office hallmarks, typically including the makers mark, the lion passant for sterling quality, a town mark, a date letter, and the duty mark depicting the monarchs profile.

An antique basting spoon can be presented in a shallow display box, placed on a dining sideboard alongside period hollowware, or used as a functional serving utensil during formal dinner occasions.

Clean sterling silver using a specialized non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cotton cloth to remove oxidisation. Avoid dishwasher cleaning and store pieces in anti-tarnish cloth bags to prevent atmospheric tarnish.
