Antique Silver Spoons

 

 

Item: Wine Label Description: Hock; rectangular with pierced and engraved borders Hallmark: Dublin circa 1800 by John Teare Dimensions: 52mm wide

Comments: Rare Irish label in fine order, struck three times to the reverse side with the maker's mark.  

With close scrutiny, the decoration on these labels can be seen to be quite naive (e.g. small variations in the shape and size of the hand-pieced semi-circles, non-parallel lines and incorrectly centred words)  giving a charming provincial feel to them or perhaps a Guinness too many..

See Salter fig 925 for a label of identical form.

Prices: SOLD

 Ref. No.: SE/8374
