Item: Caddy Spoon Description: Balmoral
Castle Hallmark: Edinburgh 1918 by William Robb of Ballater Dimensions: 90 mm length
Comments: A very crisp example of this highly
sort after Scottish Provincial caddy spoon. This spoon has a lovely feel
to it.
This spoon is the most famous of William Robb's products.
It has a superbly detailed embossed view of Balmoral Castle (the
Royal family's Scottish retreat). The handle has been expertly designed
with the stem modelled as the Scottish thistle surmounted by a lio rampant
and the Union Crown. Robb's workshop in Ballater was located just down
the road from the castle.
See "The Caddy Spoon in the 20th Century" pages
28-29.
