Item: Hash Spoon Description: Hanoverian Pattern
with shell fancy back Hallmark: London 1761 by either Nicholas Hearnden
or Nathaniel Horwood Dimensions: 365mm long; 184g weight Comments: A huge Georgian serving spoon in fantastic condition. The bowl is enormous with a thick leading edge and the shell to the reverse is particularly crisp. A contemporary to manufacture engraved betrothal triangle (surname initial "M") is located to the reverse terminal. The hallmarks are excellent. The assay office registers for the period are lost and therefore the identity of the maker is uncertain, however the two names mentioned above are the most likely candidates.
