Description from the seller
Set of 6 Victorian Sterling Silver Soup Spoons – James Deakin & Sons – London – c. 1886–1890 – Approx. 350 g
Description
An exceptional matching set of six genuine Victorian sterling silver soup spoons by the renowned English silversmith James Deakin & Sons, hallmarked for London.
Each spoon bears crisp British hallmarks including the maker's mark JD, the lion passant (sterling silver .925), the London Assay Office leopard's head, and the Victorian duty mark, confirming these are authentic 19th-century British sterling silver spoons.
The presence of the Victorian duty mark dates the set to circa 1886–1890, making these beautiful spoons over 135 years old. James Deakin & Sons were among England's finest silversmiths of the Victorian era, renowned for producing elegant, high-quality silverware that remains highly sought after today.
Crafted in the timeless Old English pattern, these spoons combine understated elegance with outstanding craftsmanship, making them ideal for collectors, silver enthusiasts, or anyone wishing to own a genuine piece of Victorian history.
Condition
Presented in excellent antique condition.
The bowls retain a superb finish with very little evidence of use. Surface wear is minimal and consistent with careful storage rather than regular use. Two spoons retain a light natural silver patina, which has been left untouched to preserve their authentic antique character.
There are no visible dents, repairs or significant damage.
