6 Miniature Dog Nose Spoons, 1705



Sold
6 x Spoons (cased) - Miniature; Dog-nose - London circa 1705 by David Clayton - 50mm - Ref. No.: CN/7138
An extremely rare straight set of six miniature dog nose Queen Anne period spoons. Each spoon is clearly marked with the Britannia Standard mark of David Clayton (CL) who was a specialist maker of silver toys.
The excellent condition and the fact that the set remains intact is largely testament to the presence of the original case. The case is somewhat worn and has lost its' interior lining, but for 300+ years it has done pretty well! This truly is a great find and would be a great addition to any collection of silver.
