1796 London Sterling Large 12+ Inch Ladle George Smith & William Fearn 186g.
In gorgeous condition. Purchased at an estate sale. English sterling hallmark lion passant is partially worn off but was otherwise easy to determine. Adding to the fact that we could verify Smith & Fearn who worked exclusively with sterling and the date code “A” which corresponds to 1796.
This is a very large - over 12 inches considering the curvature of the spoon - and very heavy at 186 grams (5.980 Oz Troy).
This ladle is 224 years old.
Shipped with USPS Priority with tracking to winning buyer.
