RecordSpoon< 1 of 1 > Back Made in Aberdeen
SpoonThis silver spoon was made by Aberdeen silversmith Alexander Galloway around 1670. It is known as a trefid spoon because of the three lobes which make up the design at the end of the stem. The spoon has a leaf pattern on the stem and on the bowl. Scottish-made spoons of the 16th and 17th century are rare. Designs initially followed English and continental patterns and the trefid design originated in London. It is fairly uncommon in Scotland.
