1825 Picture Back Fiddle Pattern Coin Silver Teaspoon by NYC and Savannah Frederick Marquand
$120.00
Offered here, a New York City coin silver fiddleback picture back serving spoon engraved 'M. Bird'. This spoon was hand made in the 19th century of sterling silver. Spoon is to be considered a picture back with a nice decoration between the handle and the bowl on obverse. Reverse is stamped "F Marquand" perhaps from a transitional period in his career. This is a rare if not uncatalogued mark. Condition is good with minor patina and surface wear typical of a piece of this age. Strong and sturdy construction! Would make an especially fine gift! 5.75" and about 16.3 grams.
