A sturdy and well made sugar sifter spoon from 1807. Made in London during the reign of King George by silversmith William Eley (1749-1824) who registered his first mark at Goldsmiths Hall in 1778. In later life he joined forces with William Fearn and their partnership was registered in 1797. William's three sons followed their father in the same profession.

This sugar sifter spoon was made with a simple but rather elegant shape. The handle is gently curved and is engraved with initials at the top. The bowl showcases the skill of the silversmith and features a pleasing pierced design. The sugar sifter is made of sterling silver with clear hall marks that show the manufacturer's initials 'WE', lion passant mark, London town mark, and year mark 'M'. A lovely detail is the confirmation that the tax was paid for the American War of Independence as the spoon handle is also stamped with the temporary duty mark of the monarch's head.

We do our very best to describe our items with an accurate and detailed description. High quality photography accompanies all our listings. Due to the restrictions of this medium it is not always possible to represent the precise size, appearance or colours of a product fully.

The used and aged nature of antiques and vintage items means that it is not always possible to describe or photograph every imperfection, blemish, dent or scratch. The vast majority of our customers will know this and not expect to receive their antique in factory new condition. The worn look is a large part of the charm of buying old pieces after all.
