Fine pair of Cork table spoons assayed Dublin

Postby scorpio » Sat May 18, 2013 3:44 pm

Some Cork silversmiths sent their silver to Dublin to be assayed and this pair of fine table spoons is by well known Cork silversmith Joseph Kinselagh assayed in Dublin in 1805. His was made a freeman of Cork in 1780. His death is incorrectly shown as 1783 in the book Cork Silver and Gold as he appears to have been working until 1807.
