Description: | RU inscr. in pencil b.r. "FORK"; inscr. in pencil b.c. "2 spoons wanted / SPOONS" DES MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) The spoons, incorporating the M.M.M. monogram, must have been for Mackintosh's wife, Margaret Macdonald. In her will she bequeathed two silver grapefruit spoons (untraced) bearing the initials M.M.M. on the handle to their long-standing friend Desmond Chapman-Huston. Though these might well be the pieces in this design, the bowl does not have the pointed shape of the traditional grapefruit spoon. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | CUTLERY DESIGN : SPOONS : CRM ONLINE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
