Victorian Silver Salt Spoon, Chawner & Co, 1844 Victorian  Silver Salt Spoon %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This is a very good quality, heavy Victorian Sterling Silver Salt Spoon in the classic Fiddle pattern. The spoon has a gilt bowl to protect it from salt corrosion and the initials J S D elegantly engraved at the top of the stem.

The salt spoon is made in London by the famous firm of silversmiths Chawner & Co and dates to 1844. The Chawner family were closely connected to the Smith, Eley & Fearn families but finally set up on their own under William Chawner in 1815. In 1840 the company passed to his son-in-law George Adams, who remained in charge until the firm was bought by Holland, Aldwinckle & Slate in 1883. Chawner & Co were superb spoon makers and one of the most important silversmith firms of the 19th century.

Condition is extremely good with no dings or dents, no wear to the gilding and the bare minimum of superficial surface that you would expect after over 175 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The spoon is 11.1cm / 4.4ins long and weighs a very respectable 17.8g / 0.63oz of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks on the underside of the stem are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the leopard's head assay mark for London, the Gothic date letter J for 1844, the Queen Victoria duty mark and the GA makers' mark for George Adams of Chawner & Co.
