Queen Anne Dog Nose Spoon, 1710

This very competitively priced Queen Anne period silver spoon is in fine condition throughout with very good Britannia Standard hallmarks, apart from the maker's mark which is difficult to make out (but includes a 5-point star). This dog nose spoon has a satisfying feel in the hand with a bold rattail to the reverse of the bowl and bears original dot pricked engraved betrothal initials to the reverse terminal.The bowl retains its full-shape and has a couple of very minor bumps and the spoon has a good all over patina.
