Description
A pair of George III silver berry spoons, each with florally decorated stem leading to a bowl with crimped rim and embossed fruit motifs, hallmarked London 1795 with maker's mark 'W.S', tentatively attributed to William Sumner I. Together with an early Georgian berry spoon and a similar Victorian example, hallmarked Elizabeth Eaton, London 1846. Weight 7.64 ozt (237.6 grams).
Condition
All the spoons display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The pair of George III spoons appear in fairly good overall condition and the hallmarks are clear and legible with just some slight rubbing. Some heavier tarnishing to the other two spoons and both would benefit from a clean and polish. The bowls on these two spoons are a little knocked and out of shape, especially the early Georgian one. The hallmarks on this spoon are quite squashed and distorted. The hallmarks on the Victorian spoon are rubbed but legible.
