£850

The Snuff Spoons are modelled in the Old English Pattern and are engraved at the top of the stem with the contemporary script initials "ER".  Each has a good bowl, with thick tip to the end and each displays a good set of hallmarks.  To find a single snuff spoon from Newcastle is rare, however to find a set of six is most unusual.

Length: 2.95 inches, 7.38 cm.
