1907 Antique Sterling Silver Cheshire Cat Spoon
1907 Antique English Sterling Silver Cheshire Cat Spoon Alice in Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland- Alice first encounters the Cheshire Cat at the Duchess's house in her kitchen, and then later outside on the branches of a tree, where it appears and disappears at will, engaging Alice in amusing but sometimes vexing conversation. The cat sometimes raises philosophical points that annoy or baffle Alice. It does, however, appear to cheer her up when it turns up suddenly at the Queen of Hearts' croquet field, and when sentenced to death baffles everyone by having made its head appear without its body, sparking a massive argument between the executioner and the King and Queen of Hearts about whether something that does not have a body can indeed be beheaded.
At one point, the cat disappears gradually until nothing is left but its grin, prompting Alice to remark that she has often seen a cat without a grin but never a grin without a cat
Dairy Farming- A possible origin of the phrase "Grinning like a Cheshire Cat" is from the large number of dairy farms in Cheshire, hence the cats grin because of the abundance of milk and cream. This is the explanation most favoured by the people of Cheshire, England
This certainly would grace any collection and would make a perfect gift.
Any white marks on the images are from the flash.
I always over describe my items, and exaggerate any defects visible this way there shouldn't be any surprises.
Item Condition Silver in good original condition.
Item Hallmark and Maker Birmingham 1907/08 - B&C company Ltd of Birmingham, England.
Item Size Approximate 4" 1/2 long
Item Total Weight Approximate 8.6 Grams in Total
Certificate of Authenticity Every item I sell comes with a detailed description, stating its authenticity, approximate date of manufacture, size, weight and price paid.
