Caddy Spoon - Spade - Birmingham 1809 by Cocks & Bettridge - 7.6cm long - CM/1220

Cocks & Bettridge were a Birmingham based silversmithing partnership that produced some very innovative silver caddy spoons; one of the most favoured being the spade.

This novelty, Georgian, silver caddy spoon has a hollow "T"-shaped handle and basket-weave engraved shovel-shaped bowl. The spoon is in excellent condition with a good set of hallmarks to the back of the bowl.
