$14.00 Price per piece, three available.
This 5 1/2" long, approximately .4 T. oz., teaspoon is one of three matching, exquisitely made, New England origin, pieces dating from the 1850s.
It has a Fiddle Tipt handle that is engraved "S M R" in fine script lettering set sideways on the front.
The bowl is well-formed, proportionate, has a pointed end, and rounded, tapered fins at the join with the handle.
Coin silver, it is marked "R.R. Conn" for the Fitchburg, Massachusetts jeweler. While not an uncommon piece per se, this mark rarely appears and is of regional interest.
In choice condition, this is without any visible wear and has a bright finish. The bowl is entirely free of dents, bends, or tip wear.
