Lot Description

Eighteenth century silver pair of sugar nips with ring finger handles, scrolled stems and shell terminal grips, the central circular panel with engraved initials to one side and date 1766 to the other, hallmarked with the Lion Passant mark only and a maker's mark, probably William & John Deane;  together with a single silver teaspoon with a pierced golf club stem leading to a foliate scrolled terminal, hallmarked Mappin & Webb Ltd., Birmingham 1925, and a Russian silver teaspoon with engraved foliage to the reverse of the bowl and a part spiral twist tapered stem, City mark possibly for Kiev.  Combined weight 2.13 ozt (66.3 grams). (3).

Postage: Auction Default

Weight: No

Total lot weight: No

All three pieces display general wear and surface marks and scratches and some tarnishing, commensurate with the age and use.  Deeper scratches to some areas and various minor nicks and surface dints.  Some slight loss of detail to decoration in places.  Scissor action of nips still in working order.  Maker's mark is partly distorted.  The spoon bowls have faired quite well, with a little more wear towards the tips.  The stem on the Russian spoon is a little bent.  Hallmarks and Russian marks on these two spoons are mainly legible.
