Item: Caddy Shovel Description: Celtic design; hammered bowl Hallmark: Iona circa 1950 by Iain MacCormick Dimensions: 90mm long Comments: Following on from the success of the famous Ionian silversmith Alexander Ritchie, Iain MacCormick set up his own Iona workshop with designs inspired by Celtic art and his surrounding landscape. Most of his work comprised jewellery, however the occasional larger piece is found. This hand-made spoon has Celtic imagery along it's stem with an intentionally, crudely hammered bowl. The spoon is marked to the reverse with his I.M.C initials, plus the Iona, and Sterling Scotland marks.
