Description: | Fragment of the bowl and part of the stem of a silver teaspoon. These are referred to as 'picture-backed' teaspoons, as the back of the bowls are decorated, and are typical of the mid-18th century. This one has moulded floral decoration in the form of foliage that is spreading up onto the back of the bowl from the curved support for the bowl at the end of the stem.Moore (2005) illustrates two similar examples on page 25 and 27, which are dated to c.1750-1760, and to c.1750 respectively.
