The rib is to the front and the tip turned upwards as in Hanoverian pattern,this spoon is a tranitional hybrid of hanoverian pattern and fiddle pattern. The initials are engraved verso so this spoon was intended to be laid at the table in the French fashion,so obviously a spoon of quality. There are four bottom placed marks, now sadly quite rubbed, but no shoulders to the fiddle shape,and a very unusual drop. This spoon is of good guage and in good condition.There is a typical mid 18th. Century makers mark of a shaped punch with a large crown above a mullet,and between two letters ( both unclear ) and below a very clear V. There is a pinched crowned harp for Dublin. You will wait a very long time to see another of this type,a very interesting addition to any spoon collection.
