These are a fabulous set of 16 silver-gilt teaspoon made by the premier specialist spoonmaker, Francis Higgins. The spoons are superbly decorated with an original engraved crest to the front terminal. The 16 spoons are presented in two trays within the original box. The spoons are in superb original condition, but the clasp of the box is damaged and so requires to be pressed in to open it up (we considered disposing of the box, but it seems a shame as the spoons have been and could continue to be perfectly preserved!). A truly wonderful set of Francis Higgins spoons at a very sensible price.
