4 x Victorian Silver Teaspoons, Exeter, 1846
This is a good quality, heavy gauge set of four early Victorian Sterling Silver Teaspoons in the classic Fiddle pattern. The spoons each have the initials AS elegantly engraved in script style at the top of the stems.
The teaspoons are made in Exeter by William Rawlings Sobey and date to 1846. Sobey was a specialist spoon maker who worked from premises in Queen Street, right in the heart of the city of Exeter. He was active from at least 1830 through until his death in 1852. Exeter was the principal assay office for the South West of England from its foundation in 1701 through to its closure in 1883 and Exeter marked silver is much sought after by collectors.
These are well made spoons in a good heavy gauge of silver. Condition is extremely good with no dings or dents and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after over 175 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
Each spoon is 13.9cm /5.5ins long and the set of four together weigh in at a substantial 85.5g / 3oz 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 Gothic date letter K for 1846, the Queen Victoria duty mark and the W.R.S in conjoined circles makers' mark for William Rawlings Sobey.
Shipping in the UK is £10 by Royal Mail Special Delivery, which includes cover for the value of the spoons.
