Irish Sterling Silver Serving Set - Antique George III

This exceptional antique George III Irish sterling silver flatware service has been crafted in the Old English pattern.

The anterior surface of each spoon and ladle terminal is embellished with a contemporary bright cut engraved crest of a wolf's head erased.

The reverse of these sterling silver spoons are plain and unembellished with rounded heels.

This antique flatware set consists of 10 pieces:

8 Table spoons

Gravy spoon

Soup ladle

The sterling silver table spoons are large, as to be expected for 18th century Irish examples; these versatile spoons could be utilised as serving spoons.

The reverse of each piece bears the Irish hallmarks, in addition to the retailer's mark for John Ash 'J. Ash'.
