This is from my only Scottish piece, bought it just because I liked the crest. It was made by William Dempster, date letter D for 1768 Edingurgh. Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Pete

Hi,

I have a set of six dessert forks with the same crest but were made in London in 1859. With your spoon I don't think the engraving is contemporary.
