This is a good quality William IV Sterling Silver Salt Spoon in the classic Old English pattern. The spoon has the initial S elegantly engraved at the top of the stem.

The salt spoon was made in London by renowned silversmith William Eaton and dates to 1837. William Eaton was a specialist spoon maker who registered his first mark at Goldsmiths Hall in 1813. He produced very high quality flatware up until his death in 1845, at which point his widow Elizabeth took over the running of the business, being joined by their son John in 1858. The firm was finally sold to Holland, Aldwinckle & Slater in 1863.

Condition is very good, with no dings or dents, no salt corrosion and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after over 185 years of use. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The salt spoon is 9.4cm / 3.7ins long and weighs in at 8.1g / 0.28oz of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, on the underside of the stem, are clear to read with just a little rubbing to the makers' mark, which is still legible. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the leopard's head assay mark for London, the date letter B for 1837, the William IV duty mark and the W E makers' mark for William Eaton.
