Silfren and The Bedford Gallery
DESCRIPTION |
An early George III silver Hanoverian Feather Edge pattern soup ladle with a discreet Baronet's coronet engraved at the base of the stem and probably later bright cut engraved ribbon tied floral garlands. The top of the stem features a long haired voluptuous maiden. This is a bottom marked piece as you would expect, however, all of the hallmarks are exceptionally crisp and clear with virtually no pinching. | ||
