I would describe these two silver table spoons as Rat-tail (or Hanoverian) - am I correct? (I apologise for my ignorance - this really is not my field)
And how would you describe the detail where the stem joins the bowl?
All help is appreciated. Thank you.
Rat-tail (Hanoverian), I think with odd reverse bobbly bit

Hi Frances,
The spoon would be described as Hanoverian with a single drop.
See: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=6532
Although a rat-tail can at times be found along the stem on some patterns of flatware, the term Rat-tail is usually applied to when the feature is found on the back of the bowl.
