Description: | A cast copper alloy spoon bowl of post-medieval date. The spoon bowl measures 61.7mm in length, 46mm in width at its widest point and weighs 18.6g. A fleur de lis has been stamped within the bowl, adjacent to where the stem has broken off. Fleur de lis makers' marks have been noted on latten seal top and slip top spoons (Homer 1975, 54). Unlike goldsmiths (who worked in silver and gold), little is known about the marks of spoonmakers who worked in pewter and brass and it is not possible to identify the maker's mark on this example. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Knibb, Philip | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
