Victorian Silver Salt Spoon, William Smily, 1859
Here we have a very distinctive Victorian Sterling Silver Salt Spoon. The bowl of the spoon is slightly upturned to form a small scoop, whilst the stem is long and slender with a finial formed like a turned banister newel.
The spoon is made in London by William Smily of A.B. Savory & Sons and dates to 1859. William Smily joined A.B. Savory & Sons around 1830 and by the mid-1850s had risen to become Works Manager and entered his own mark at Goldsmiths Hall. After his death in 1865, his son Samuel replaced him as Works Manager.
Condition is very good with just the slightest kink to the stem of the spoon. There is no salt corrosion and the spoon has clearly been well looked after for over 160 years! Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The salt spoon is 9.1cm long and weighs a very respectable 12.3g of solid Sterling Silver.
The hallmarks on the underside of the lip of the bowl don't photograph very well but are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the leopard's head assay mark for London, the Gothic date letter d for 1859, the Queen Victoria duty mark and the W.S makers' mark for William Smily of A.B. Savory & Sons.
Shipping in the UK is £4 by Royal Mail 1st Class Signed For.
