Item: Table Spoon Description: Hanoverian rat-tail
Hallmark: London 1709 by Mary Mathew Dimensions: 200mm long,
58g weight
Comments: An excellent early example of a
Britannia Standard Rattail spoon. The date letter and maker's mark are
very clear. There is no Britannia mark and no signs that one was ever
stamped (probably an oversight at Goldsmith's Hall), the lion's head
erased mark is present. The lady maker's mark (M.A over a duck and under a
figure) is within a widow's lozenge and was entered as she took over the
business of her deceased husband William Mathew in 1707.
