Maker Of Picture Back Teaspoon

Post by juantotree »

Hi

Does anybody have any suggestions for the maker of this 18th century picture back teaspoon

It is marked with the lion passant and makers mark only, which appears to be RB, but unusually as well as a dividing pellet it is also flanked with a pellet on either side.

Many Thanks
Martin

It could be BB instead of RB. Here's a BB mark with three pellets with an appropriate date (1762-65) but unfortunately it's listed unknown and not shown in Grimwade.
