Presented is a wonderful Victorian English sterling silver platter or stuffing spoon. This spoon dates to 1843 and was made by Samuel Hayne & Dudley Cate. The spoon is done in a classic Fiddle Thread pattern, with the distinctive fiddle-head handle and shoulders above the bowl. The handle is finely engraved with a crest of a dove with an olive branch in its mouth. This is a heavy, high quality piece, and would be a great addition to any silver collection.

This piece is in great condition. There are no splits, no breaks, no dents, no cracks, no monogram removals, and no repairs.

This piece is hallmarked on the underside with the lion passant for sterling silver, the leopard's head for the city of London, the date letter h for 1843, Queen Victoria's head duty mark, and the maker's mark for Samuel Hayne & Dudley Cate.

The spoon is about 12 inches long.

The spoon weighs 200 grams or 7.1 regular ounces.
