SPOON 6

[philo]

Can anyone please help me identify exactly what the style, type, maker, date when made and possible origin of the spoon is?

The basin appears to have a shade of gold. Is this gold gilt?

The pictures aren't the best but the maker appears to be the letters ' m c ' in a rectangular stamp.

Any help would be much appreciated.

With all of the items I have listed, I have done my own preliminary research to some avail, but would like some expert , experienced opinions especially in relation to dates.

Thanks to all who contribute

Hello

That is an egg spoon. The bowl is gilded as eegs have a high sulphur content, which would tarnish naked siver.

That should of have said "eggs" and "silver" of course. Sorry about the typos.

If it is " M C" then my thought would be Mary Chawner
