Unknown teaspoon

Post by SteveH »

This spoon is marked STERLING and may have a letter or mark before it.

Any ideas on maker or pattern?

Hi,

Can you post a close-up image of the marks?

Hope these help.

It looks a lot like an "A" before STERLING. But not sure if it's CA, EA or something else entirely.

Hi,

Looks like the 'Indian head' of Wilcox & Evertsen/International Silver. I think the pattern maybe 'Florence', but wait for other opinions.

Thanks Trev. I agree on the Indian Head (good eye!).

The only info I can find on the Florence pattern is some eBay sellers. Not sure where they get their info but the pattern matches what I have.
