Caddy spoons were made from 1780 onwards and come in numerous designs. They were designed to measure 1 spoonful of tea and were usually kept with the tea caddy. Rare examples, such as those in the form of a jockey cap, can command a high price.
The silver spoon is in good condition with moderate signs of wear commensurate with age. The bowl is not worn, the engraving is crisp.
By appointment only.
