Solid Silver Georgian Tablespoon 1796 Thomas Streetin
This is a very good antique silver Georgian (1796) tablespoon by Thomas Streetin.
It is a must to add to any collection of good Georgian silver.
It has a bright cut wriggle-work and wavy line pattern to the front of the handle with a flower head to the top of the pattern.
The cartouche in the top of the handle has the same pattern as the handle surrounding it with 3 very fancy entwined engraved initials in it.
Apart from a middle ?A? the other two are difficult to read.
The Old English pattern is to the back of the handle with the rest being completely plain.
Made from a good gauge of silver and has clear hallmarks
