A set of six unusually large Willem III Fiddle Thread pattern teaspoons and sugar tongs in original fitted case with retailers stamp of Bonebakker of Amsterdam. The spoons were assayed in Amsterdam in 1879 (2) and 1889 (4) and the tongs in 1879. All are engraved with the arms of Huyssen van Kattendijke and those of Van Limburg-Stirum (a bookplate bearing the Huyssen van Kattendijke arms beneath a coronet is attached to the base of the box). The arms on these spoons and tongs are those of Karel Lodewijk Huyssen van Kattendijke (1845-1893) and Johanna Sara Countess van Limburg-Stirum (1844-1911) who married in Zutphen in Holland on 19th December 1872. The Huyssen van Kattendijkes were descended from Adriaan Huyssen, Mayor of Goes, who died in 1575. His descendants were granted honours in France, England and the Holy Roman Empire during the course of the seventeenth century. During the following centuries the family held many local positions of power as Mayors and Aldermen of their home cities and In 1814 they were promoted to noble status in the Netherlands and Johann Willem (1782-1854) served as Foreign Minister of the Netherlands between 1841 and 1843. The Van Limburg-Stirum family is one of the oldest in Europe- it is the eldest recorded branch of the House of Berg who ruled the Lower Rhine in the 11th century (and arguably to the Ezzonen family of Lotharingia in the 9th century). When the Holy Roman Empire was abolished, following its defeat by Napoleon, the family lost some of their influence but not their noble status. Like the Van Kattendijkes they were granted Dutch noble status in 1814 and held many political offices. The most prominent members were Leopold (1758-1840) who was one of the three men who invited King Willem I of the Netherlands to accept the throne in 1814 and Johann Paul (1873-1948) who was Governor General of the East Indies (1916-1921). He was later Dutch Ambassador to both Berlin and London. Finally Otto Ernst Gelder (d. 1942) was a member of the Dutch resistance in World War 2 (for which he was executed) and maternal uncle of Audrey Hepburn. The makers of these spoons and tongs, Bonebakker of Amsterdam, are a prestigious firm now located in the Van Baerle Shopping Gallery in the Museum Quarter of Amsterdam. The firm was founded in 1792, and by 1802 the firm, then styled Bonebakker and Bennewitz, became one of the most prominent in the Amsterdam. By 1806 they were employed to create the silver keys presented to the city by Louis Napoleon, newly created King of Holland. In 1816, following the ousting of Louis Napoleon, the firm received a presitigious commission from his successor. They were asked to make a 419 piece dinner service for the new King's heir Willem, Prince of Orange, and his wife Anna, sister of Tsar Alexander I of Russia. When, in 1840, Willem ascended the throne he chose Bonebakker to make his Crown. The firm remains important suppliers to the monarchs of the Netherlands today.

A silver-gilt fiddle thread teaspoon with unusual thread heel, by Paul Storr London 1816, crested for George, Viscount Deerhurst (future 8th Earl of Coventry),. George William Coventry (1784-1843) was, as eldest son and heir to the 7th Earl of Coventry, styled Viscount Deerhurst from 1809 until he acceded to the Earldom in 1831. He married Lady Emma Susan Lygon, daughter of the 1st Earl Beauchamp, in 1808 and, following her death Lady Mary Beauclerk, daughter of the 6th Duke of St. Albans, who had a dowry of £100,000. However he is often better known for his pursuit of the 13-year-old Sophia Dubouchet (the future Lady Berwick). Sophia's sister, the more famous courtesan, Harriette Wilson, reveals much about this in her memoirs including the fact that Deerhurst was 'a most profligate nobleman... [who] was unusually sparing of soap and water ... He dresses completely before he touches water'. |

A George VI teaspoon with Celtic motifs and the bowl stamped with a dove and IONA, by Iona Celtic Art Birmingham 1937 also carrying the maker's mark of Alexander Ritchie . Alexander Ritchie (1856-1941) trained as a marine engineer and worked for the British India Steam Shipping Company but when in Scotland attended the Glasgow School of Art. There he met Euphemia Thompson and they married in 1898. Two years later Ritchie was appointed custodian of Iona Cathedral and the couple began to produce silver derived from the stonework of Iona (and elsewhere in Scotland). From 1910 Ritchie had a hallmark in Chester and in 1931 also registered at Birmingham as Iona Celtic Art. The Ritchies became a key part of disseminating Celtic design, and their successors on Iona continue to do this today. |

A Victorian cast spoon with the terminal modelled as the arms of the Salters' Company, the stem decorated with their motto and the reverse dated May 12 1853, by Samuel Smith and William Nicholson London 1858. The Salters' Company received its Royal Charter in 1394 and although the earliest document in the company archives dates from 1216 the organisation is believed to predate the Norman Conquest. In 1515 the Salters were ranked ninth among the livery companies of the City of London- a position they still hold today. In 1618 the Salters' Company was granted the 23, 250 acres of land in Northern Ireland by James I, due to their financial support for the Crown. In 1627 the Company leased the estates out and the upheavals of the British Civil Wars of the mid sevententeenth century meant that their holding of them was purely nominal. In the eighteenth century an attempt was made by the then holder of the lease, a Belfast merchant called Thomas Bateson, to foster the linen industry. 1830 saw the Salters' Company establish an Irish Estates Commitee based on the expiry of Bateson's lease in 1853 to take a greater involvement in the affairs of the lands and so ensure a smooth transfer of ownership. Therefore the 12th of May 1853, when the lands returned to them was an important day in the Company's history. In the 1870s the Salters, like many livery companies at the time, sold many of their estates. This model of spoon appears to have been commissioned by the Company from 1858, making this one of the earliest examples, as gifts for the apprentices when they became free of their masters and members (or freemen) of the Company in their own right. |

A George III Hanoverian pattern teaspoon with 'Hearts of Oak' back made in London circa 1760 by William Tant. Price: £125.00 The medal issued for the coronation of George III (1738-1820) in 1760 carries, on the reverse, the same emblem as on this spoon. George III was the first monarch of the Hanoverian dynasty to have been born in Britain and have English as his first language and in his accession speech he stated that he 'gloried in the name of Britain'. This is the reason for the 'British' used in the design of this spoon and the medal along with the heart and the patriotic oakleaves. In 1759 David Garrick had written the lyrics for Heart of Oak- a song for his pantomime Harlequin's Invasion (the music was written by William Boyce).

A George III Hanoverian pattern pictureback teaspoon with chased 'basket of flowers' back made in London or possibly provincial circa 1750, crested with a bird inside a snake on a mound. Price: £125.00 Although 'basket of flower' back teaspoons are not uncommon the method of decoration on this one is unusual. It is possible that it is an early provincial example of a pictureback produced by this method because the maker did not have access to the dies used in London but sadly the marks do not make it possible to be certain.

A George III Fiddle Shell pattern teaspoon, by Godbehere, Wigan and Bult London 1809, engraved on the back of the bowl {GOD be here} .

Samuel Godbehere (c. 1755-1818) was elected an Alderman of the City of London in 1809 (the first member of the Needlemakers' Company to rise to this rank). He went on to stand for Lord Mayor in 1816, 1817 and 1818 but was unsuccessful on all occasions. |

Odd pieces may be found; building a service would be extremely difficult'. A spoon of 1856 is illustrated on the same page of the book.

However it was found that striking an incuse punch into completed pieces caused damage and the mark was discontinued after only two years. Consequently this is the rarest English hallmark. |

A Victorian fiddle pattern teaspoon, by Emidio Critien Malta 1856, engraved with the crest and motto of the Ireland family above the initials WKI for Captain Wynder Kelly Ireland RN (1826-1856). Captain Wynder Kelly Ireland RN (1828-1856) was the son of Captain Richard Ireland CB of the British Army. He was born at Roscommon in Ireland and entered the Royal Navy as a Gentleman's Cadet with the rank of 2nd Lieutenant on 17th December 1844 and, having spent 3 months at the Royal Naval College. He was promoted to 1st Lieutenant in 1848 and served on several ships before being posted to the Baltic in 1854. His Naval record (a copy of which is available with this spoon) shows that he 'served in the Black Sea [aboard H.M.S. Hannibal], from November 1854 to April 1855. Engaged in the nightly attacks against the sea batteries of Sebastopol.. [and] served [aboard H.M.S. Gladiator] in the Flying Squadron under the Command of Sir H.

He was promoted to Captain on 22nd March 1856 and returned to Portsmouth via the Mediterranean where both H. M. S. Hannibal and H. M. S. Gladiator are recorded after the Crimean War. He died of apoplexy on 17th December 1856. |

A George III Old English pattern teaspoon made in London in 1797 (with the Duty mark used between 30th May and 5th July), initialled {T over WM}. The duty on silver in Great Britain, payment of which was signified by the King's head, was doubled in 1797 to 1s per Troy Ounce to help finance the war against France. In Birmingham, Newcastle, Sheffield and York this was shown by the striking of two King's heads, but in London and Exeter cusps were added to the edge of the punch. The hallmarks prior to the increase can be seen on this spoon and those after 5th July 1797 on stock number 7222. Provenance: Collection of A. B. L. Dove FSA |

A George III Old English pattern teaspoon with Feather-edge borders made in London circa 1775 by George Smith, initialled {HS} and engraved Halley The engraved name Halley in combination with the initials suggests an owner with the relatively unusual first name Halley and a surname beginning with S. There are two possibilities baptised in London in the second half of the 18th century. The first is Halley Speering, son of another Halley and his wife Dorothy, who was baptised at St. Andrews, Holborn on 17th January 1762. The second is Halley Stephen, son of John and his wife Elizabeth, who was baptised at St. Nicholas' Church, Plumstead on 27th June 1773. On balance Halley Stephen seems the more likely candidate given the date and the fact that the engraved name on the spoon would not have helped Halley Speering as it could also have referred to his father.

A George III Fiddle Thread pattern teaspoon, by Mary Sumner London 1806, engraved with the crest and coronet of Thomas Bruce, 7th Earl of Elgin (1766-1841). Thomas Bruce (1766-1841) was educated at Harrow and Westiminster before studying at the Universities of St. Andrews and Paris. He inherited the Earldom of Elgin from his brother in 1771 (who had survived his father by less than a year) and joined the army in 1785, rising to the rank of full General by 1837. Elgin also served as a representative peer in Parliament from 1790-1807 and 1820-1841 and had a distinguished diplomatic career. He was sent to Vienna in 1790, Brussels 1792-1795, Berlin 1795-1799 and Constantinople 1799-1803. It was on this last posting that he engineered the purchase of the friezes from the Parthenon in Athens now better known as the 'Elgin Marbles'. Despite his grand lineage (the family had received their Earldom in 1633 and were believed to have been descended from an illegitimate son of King Robert the Bruce) this purchase (estimated at £74,000) was funded by the lands and income of his heiress wife Mary (nee Nisbet). In 1816 the friezes were purchased from the Earl by the British nation for £35,000 and placed in the British Museum. In 1808 the Earl and Countess were divorced by Act of Parliament and she married the co-respondent in the case Robert Ferguson of Raith (see item 8105 on https://www.schredds.com/butter.htm). In 1810 the Earl married Elizabeth Oswald, youngest daughter of James Townsend Oswald of Dunnikeir, Auditor of the Exchequer. The Earl died in 1841, his first wife in 1855 and his widow in 1860. |

A George III Old English pattern teaspoon made in London in 1815 (with the Duty mark used between May 30th and 13th June) by John Lias, initialled {ML} 1815 saw two changes to the duty on silver- from 14th June a statute was passed to show that pieces were stamped after the Irish duty had been harmonised with the English one and from 1st September the duty was increased to 1s 6d per Troy Ounce. This spoon carries the marks used in the 14 days before either change was instituted- this short time period making it a comparatively rare set of marks (even taking into account London's high volume of production).
