Silver Sifter & Sauce Ladle Set, Exeter, 1858 Victorian  Silver Sifter Spoon %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This is an attractive matching set of a Victorian Sterling Silver Sifter Spoon and Sauce Ladle. The two pieces are in the King's shape but in place of the usual design they have engraved scrolling acanthus leaves down the fronts of the stems surrounding a cartouche at the top in which the initial L is elegantly engraved.

The two pieces were made in Exeter by silversmith John Stone and date to 1858. 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.

Overall condition is very good with no dings or dents. However there has been a neat repair done to the upper part of the stem of the sauce ladle at some point in the past, which has resulted in the stem being just a little shorter than that of the sifter spoon. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The sifter spoon is 14.5cm / 5.7ins long and the sauce ladle is 14cm / 5.5ins long. The two together weigh in at a very respectable 67.4g / 2.4oz of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, on the undersides of the stems, are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the three towered wall assay mark for Exeter, the date letter B for 1858, the Queen Victoria duty mark and the J.S makers' mark for John Stone.
