Item:323933247489CASED HALLMARKED SILVER SPOON & 'PUSHER' INITIAL B/R ? - CHRISTENING SET / GIFT . CASED HALLMARKED SILVER BABY SPOON & 'PUSHER' SET - PERSONALISED WITH INITIAL B / R ? WOULD MAKE LOVELY CHRISTENING GIFT
The spoon measures 8.5cm long, with the bowl measuring around 3.2cm wide (approx). The pusher measures 9.5cm long and 4.8cm wide (approx). The total weight of both pieces is 47.9g on my scales (approx). Both pieces are hallmarked with a maker's / sponsor's mark of what appears to be ' B.G & CO ' (similar marks relate to Britton, Gould & Co
), an anchor, a lion passant and a date letter of an upper case 'L' (c 1935). The pieces are engraved with an initial, which appears as a B / R ?, but please view the images and make your own assessment. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A VINTAGE / PRE-OWNED / PREVIOUSLY USED SET, SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EXAMPLE IN PERFECT CONDITION, THIS WILL NOT FIT INTO THAT CATEGORY.
Condition: This set is in used / pre-owned condition, with surface scratches, discolouration, marks, knocks and wear on the silver pieces, commensurate with age / use. They would probably benefit from additional appropriate cleaning. Upon close inspection, there could be some slight distortion to the end of the 'pusher' (please see photos). There is condensed wear / scratching especially noticeable on the underside of the bowl of the spoon ([probably from little teeth!). I have taken a number of close up photos, including those using a microscope camera, in an attempt to show wear / scratching examples. The presentation box has some significant wear, marks, stains / discolouration (especially to the cream coloured internal fabric), areas of lifting and scuffs. I have taken numerous photos, to allow potential bidders the opportunity to make their own assessment, in addition to them forming part of the description. This christening set is in vintage / used condition, so please take time to read the condition description / Seller Notes above, in addition to viewing the images, before bidding. The ruler, cotton reel and scales are not part of the listing, but there just to give an idea as to size / weight / perspective.
Please feel free to ask any questions. I will try to answer questions as soon as possible, but this will normally be in the evening. There are times where I may not be able to reply within 24 hours but I will reply well before the listing ends.
UK Postage I am always happy to combine postage, but please contact me before paying to arrange the most suitable method. If you require a tracking number for the item, please ensure that you pay for a tracked service. I am always happy for collection in person or for a buyer to arrange their own courier which may be cheaper for the winning bidder. Hermes is preferred for UK collection as we have an exceptionally good delivery man.
International items under 2kg will still be sent via Royal Mail. I will quite happily post most items
overseas, but if I have not already been provided international prices, please ask me for postage costs before
bidding. I will not post to the Middle East, South America or Africa. International items sent by courier will require a contact telephone number.
Packing -
I pack to ensure the item arrives with you undamaged. If you have specific packing instructions, please contact me before paying as this may have an impact on the price, as both an increase in weight or size can increase the cost of delivery.
I do try to recycle boxes and other materials wherever possible and will sometimes use newspaper for
padding out, if it does not have any impact on the cost of postage.
