Item: Caddy Spoon Description: Thistle Hallmark: London
1948 by L G Durbin Dimensions: 70mm long; 39g weight Comments: A superb caddy spoon made by Leslie Durbin (former apprentice to Omar Ramsden). This large and heavy caddy spoon bears a finely modelled thistle motif to the handle - representing Scotland. We have previously encountered an identical spoon with shamrock motif and so presumably Durbin made a series of these spoons to celebrate the countries of the United Kingdom. The condition is excellent with clear hallmarks.
