Hester Bateman Salt Shovel
Sold
Salt Shovel - Old English pattern - London 1787 by Hester Bateman - 100mm long - Ref. No.: ZA/7461
A rare example of a salt spade by the Queen of English silversmiths. This Georgian shovel is in good order and perfectly practicable, however the makers mark is faint (the distinctive script "H" is just about legible to the right of the other marks) - hence the low price!
