Antique 1748 English Georgian Sterling Silver Double Marrow Scoop Spoon
Regular price
$432.00
Presented is a wonderful English Georgian sterling silver marrow scoop spoon. This piece dates to 1748. The scoop is double ended, with a regular spoon end and a narrow scoop end for scooping marrow out of bones. Both the spoon end and the scoop end face the same way. This is a sturdy, well made piece of English silver, and would make an exceptional addition to any silver collection.
This piece is in great overall condition. There are no splits, no breaks, no dents, no monograms, no monogram removals, and no repairs.
This piece is hallmarked on the underside with the lion passant for sterling silver, the leopard's head crowned for the city of London, the date letter n for 1748, and a maker's mark of SW, which is unfortunately unidentified.
The marrow spoon is about 8 3/4 inches long.
The marrow spoon weighs 55.4 grams or 1.9 regular ounces.
