This Edwardian solid silver spoon from Sheffield, dated 1917 and made by Cooper Brothers and Sons, is a charming example of traditional English silver tableware. The piece is fashioned from sterling silver with a bright silver finish and a polished surface showing minor signs of age. Key decorative details include a molded shell terminal, scroll motifs, a slender reeded stem border, and a classic oval bowl. The handle narrows gracefully from the decorative top down to the bowl junction. The timber surface beneath the object displays a dark brown grain with visible wood markings and surface scratches. The spoon measures 10.79 cm in length. In a modern home, this piece fits naturally within an English Country House aesthetic and can be placed on a sideboard top for display or incorporated into everyday dining settings. Its compact dimensions make it suitable for use as a tea or condiment spoon, adding a touch of traditional heritage to afternoon tea services or dinner tables.

FAQs

British sterling silver flatware from the early 20th century is characterized by a standardized purity of 925 parts per thousand silver, marked with official assay office symbols, a makers mark, a date letter, and a lion passant.

Sheffield silver items were forged or cast using sterling silver alloyed with copper for added strength, shaped by hand or machine pressing, and stamped with town-specific marks.

Authentic Sheffield sterling silver features the crown mark (or rose after 1975), the lion passant indicating purity, a specific date letter corresponding to the production year, and an registered initials stamp for the manufacturer.

Antique silver spoons can be paired with modern ceramic tableware or styled on dining sideboards alongside contemporary glassware to create a textural, eclectic table arrangement.

Solid silver should be washed in warm soapy water, rinsed, and dried immediately with a soft cloth, using specialized non-abrasive silver polish periodically to manage oxidisation.
