This pair is in beautiful condition.

We are selling them as plated as we cannot tell definitely if they are solid silver.

The backs are marked with a  type of mark which could be the Danish three tower mark for solid silver but it is too undefined to be positive of this. The makers mark is DJD.

Each spoon is engraved to the back with a date 22 May 1900. However this engraving has been done over previous engraving which has been almost polished out and we can read the date on this earlier engraving to be 1874.

Often pieces in Denmark were handed down as heirlooms from one generation to another. This pair would most likely be one of those.

The spoons are in really lovely condition and each is has roughly the same deeply hand worked design. I say roughly because due to the hand worked nature of the designs they differ slightly in detail.

The edges of the bowls show no wear with the edges being crisp. There are some tiny dark spots to the bowl of one spoon as shown.

The spoons are 216mm long.
