This is a good quality Irish George IV Sterling Silver Table Spoon in the Fiddle and Rat Tail pattern, an uniquely Irish variation on the classic fiddle pattern which has the extended "rat tail" along the back of the bowl. The Table Spoon is made in Dublin in a very good gauge of silver by silversmith Christopher Eades and dates to 1825. There is a crest of a fish elegantly engraved at the top of the stem and a letter "E" is engraved at the bottom of the stem on the underside. The hallmarks at the top of the underside of the stem are well struck and clear to read. There is an additional stamp, largely rubbed away, which may be for the Dublin retailer "West's" who were a gold and silver store operating around this time.

The Table Spoon is in very good condition with no dings or dents and only the amount of wear & tear you would expect of an item that is 195 years old. Please make sure you look at all the photos.

The spoon is 22.9cm long and weighs a very substantial 70.0g of solid sterling silver.
The hallmarks are the crowned harp for Irish Sterling Silver, the Hibernia assay mark for Dublin, the date letter "E" for 1825, the George IV duty mark and the CE makers' mark for Christopher Eades.
