H G Murphy Rabbit Silver Caddy Spoon, 1934
Sold
Caddy Spoon - Rabbit - London 1934 by H G Murphy - 10cm long; 30g - SJ/6822
This is an extremely rare example of one of the most highly prized pieces of HG Murphy silver. This caddy spoon formed as a rabbit's head with the ears acting as handles is an outstanding example of perfect design and is a true beauty to hold.
The pictures say it all, however we must add that the spoon is made from a very good gauge of silver and is in excellent condition.
The spoon bears a clear set of six hallmarks including the HGM maker's mark, the silver jubilee mark for King George V and Queen Mary and the famous Falcon Studio mark (a falcon tied with a jess).
HG Murphy is regarded as one of the UK's most important silversmiths of the Art Deco period.
