It has a hammered texture on one side and is owner identified with large raised script on the other side: "Jacob Hess". Additionally, it is marked "Lyon Maker" with the lion head logo for the noted New York silversmith, and "Sterling" for the silver purity.

The overall length is 36 7/8" and the general condition is very good with minor denting on the handle and loss of bark on the shaft. It is ca 1880 and it a fine example of the kind.
