You're quite right to ask. I'm not 100% of the lettering.

English Trefid Spoon face motif 17th century?

Hello,

I would like some help placing this spoon. I believe it to be English late 17th century? The engraving looks correct to me. It also has a less than brilliant repair. It has an interesting face motif? Small sized.

Thank you

JC

Hi everyone

I apologise if this is listed in the wrong part of the forum I don't know the mark but assumed maybe colonial? Can anyone help me with the maker and/or place of origin?

Re: 18th century French silver?


Hello
Yes, your spoon appears to be French 18th C. However the marks aren’t giving much info.
The first mark you show appears to be the maker, shown upside down. I see a crowned fleur-de-lys with 1 of the 2 grains. The maker’s initials and symbol are illegible to me.
The second mark should be the ...

Hello all.

Just wondering if someone familiar with French marks could help with these hallmarks please? I'm assuming 18th century French? Sorry they are not brilliant to see.

Thanks

Exeter provincial maker?

Hello

Just looking for clarification on the maker of my recent purchase. A silver Trefid spoon marked TF x3. I think it could be Thomas Furlong but I don't have the West Country book to confirm. Thanks all.

London maker?

Hi all

I'm just wondering if this is a London hallmark or for one of the other assay offices? Do you recognise the maker?

Re: Mystery spoon marked possibly JE?


::::: If we could see the construction of the "drop" it might help (the reverse side of the spoon where the bowl is joined to the shaft) because we can compare the drop to other known drops from various countries. :::::::


Hopefully this is clear enough to be of use:
