The spoons are in excellent antique condition with good bowl tips and a fine patina. They bear original script "EJ" initials that are unusually and attractively framed by shield-shaped cartouches. The reverse of the bowls have long, extended heels and the stems are crisply struck with clear Georgian period hallmarks for Hester Bateman.
