Antique Solid Silver Salt Spoon – London 1805 – 6g – Georgian Hallmarked


A charming George III period sterling silver salt spoon, fully hallmarked for London 1805. This piece features a classic fiddle pattern handle engraved with a period monogram and a round, shallow bowl. It remains in good antique condition with expected surface wear and a slight kink to the shaft. Though the maker’s mark is rubbed, the lion passant, duty mark, and date letter are clear.

Salt spoons were essential items on the Georgian table, used for serving salt from open salt cellars before modern shakers became the norm. This example reflects early 19th-century craftsmanship and has stood the test of time.
