These little spoons are 4 7/8" long. They are twist handled, engine turned and in excellent condition. They must have been a rush order because elements of the decoration have been omitted on some and the engine turning is very strong on some and not others. There does not seem to be evidence of overpolishing, they just didn't do it correctly, sort of refreshing in our world of machine stamped perfection. Enough of an editorial, they are marked H&S. Ca 1865

This is a small early teaspoon in decent condition. It's lack of shoulders and handle form indicate early 19th century, 1800/1810. It has some minor dings in the bowl, but no bowl wear. It has a miniscule crack (less than 1/64") where the bowl & handle meet. It is marked S. Baker, NY and Wilmington, NC. The book " Silversmiths of North Carolina" states that it is unknown when Baker came to Wilmington. These early, possibly Southern spoons are hard to find.
