George V Silver Jam Spoon, Jos. Williams, 1917
This is a charming George V Sterling Silver Jam Spoon from the World War One period. The spoon has an oval, three panelled bowl and the top of the stem is decorated with a bow and harebell design. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.
The jam spoon was made by Josiah Williams & Co in Bristol and assayed in London in 1917. Josiah Williams & Co of Bristol were a hugely successful firm of silversmiths, the biggest in England outside of London, Birmingham and Sheffield. They traced their history back to Robert Williams succeeding to the business of William Woodman in around 1838. The firm passed through several generations of the Williams family becoming Josiah Williams & Co in 1879. Later partners included George Jackson and David Fullerton before they became a limited company in 1925. They finally ceased trading around 1940.
Overall condition is good, with just two small dings in the bowl plus the superficial surface wear that has tyo be expected after over 105 years of use. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The jam spoon is 12.7cm / 5ins long and weighs in at 18.3g / 0.65oz of solid Sterling Silver.
The hallmarks, on the underside of the bowl, are a little rubbed but still clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the leopard's head assay mark for London, the Gothic date letter b for 1917 and the D.F makers' mark for David Fullerton of Josiah Williams & Co.
