I recently acquired a small spoon with a collection of other silver items and am unable to find out when it dates from or who it is by. It is marked on the underside of the handle, but only with a lion passant and maker’s initials that seem to be ‘W’ and another letter I cannot quite make out. There is a monogram reading ‘E.T’ on the end of the handle on the underside which, to me, seems to be in quite an early 18th C. script style (although I may be wrong). There is a shell-like design on the reverse of the bowl if this helps dating it…
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
