| DESCRIPTION | Very good, large antique English Georgian solid sterling ring handled rectangular cross-section silver meat skewer with an initial engraving and beautifully struck hallmarks. These items are used to ensure that the centres of large roasting joints are safely cooked. I have found that they can also reduce the cooking time by 20% so are energy saving too. |
| SILVERSMITH | Thomas Chawner, possibly over-striking another that would most likely be the TC.WC mark of the 1759-1773 partnership with his brother William. |
