2 spoons

Two silver spoons. I need help with the maker, year and what the spoons were used for. I thought the maker might be Cooper Brothers & Sons, but the last letter does not look like a S. Is the year 1935 or 1960? And what sort of spoons are they? Thanks for any help. http://i.imgur.com/9RyiMtG.jpg ...

Long spoon with silver end

http://i.imgur.com/3JYPzcM.jpg http://i.imgur.com/v0FubIu.jpg A spoon measuring 23.5cm with a sliver end. The hallmark looks like Sheffield, J.Cook & Son and 1907. I am not sure about the year though. Can anybody tell me what the rest of the spoon is made of? I thought it might be plastic or bo...

Spoon with nice handle

Quite a heavy spoon, 19.5cm long, with a decorative handle which I believe is 1899.

Who is the maker? My wife is convinced it is a Liberty spoon but the hallmark does not match any of the Liberty hallmarks I have seen.

Wine coaster

A wine coaster, 12.5 cm across.

I thought the year might be 1779 and the maker (or importer) Burthold Muller. But would those times fit? Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: Small Jug

Firstly thanks for all the replies and I will remember in the future about the width limit. I put 'cream jug 1777' London into google images and found another with similar mark than was being stated as Thomas Shepard. The mark is less clear than mine and also just because its on the internet does no...

Teapot. Possibly a reproduction?

A Teapot which I think is 1907. Who are the makers? Is this a reproduction of something earlier?

Many thanks.

Re: Silver Box

Thanks for that.

I did think 1726 was a bit off and can now see the correct date letter.

Silver Box

A silver box measuring about 2.5 inches long It has hallmarks on the lid and the box. From what I can see from the date it looks like Chester 1726 but I could be way off.
