Item #881

Downturned fiddle handle, pointed shoulders, large drop, feathered script mono C W on front of handle; 8-7/8" in length; 1-3/4 T oz. This piece is in near-mint condition, the extended bowl tip unworn. The only question is the identity of the silversmith -- G (pellet) B. We bought the spoon in PA. Possible makers from that state include George Baldwin of Chester; George Bardeck of Philly; George Beatty, Harrisburg. The most likely maker, we think, is George Bertie, who moved from Baltimore and set of shop in Washington, PA, in 1815.
