Victorian Silver Salt Spoon, TS, Exeter, 1864
This is a well made Victorian Sterling Silver Salt Spoon in the traditional Fiddle pattern. The spoon has a gilded bowl and the initials W E N elegantly engraved at the top of the stem.
The salt spoon was made in Exeter by silversmith Thomas Hart Stone, son of John Stone, and dates to 1864. John Stone was one of Exeter's foremost silversmiths. He was a specialist spoon maker working from premises initially in New Bridge Street and later the High Street between the early 1820s and his death in 1868. He was succeeded in the business by his son Thomas Hart Stone who registered his own mark in 1863 and after his death in 1873 was in turn followed by his widow Frances Stone.
Condition is extremely good, with no dings or dents, no salt corrosion, no significant wear to the gilding in the bowl and just the overall superficial surface wear that you would expect after nearly 160 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The salt spoon is 8cm / 3.1ins long and weighs in at 6.5g / 0.23oz of solid Sterling Silver.
The hallmarks, on the underside of the stem, are nice and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the three towered wall assay mark for Exeter, the date letter H for 1864, the Queen Victoria duty mark and the T S makers' mark for Thomas Hart Stone.
Shipping in the UK is £4 by Royal Mail 1st Class Signed For.
