RecordSpoon< 1 of 1 > Back Made in Aberdeen
SpoonThis silver spoon was made by Aberdeen silversmith George Walker, around 1695. The style is known as a dognose spoon because when viewed from above, the end of the spoon is similar in shape to a dog's head. The spoon has an oval bowl and a wavy end stem with the tip turned up. Scottish-made spoons of the 16th and early 17th century are rare. Designs initially followed English and continental patterns and the dognose spoon developed from the three-lobed trefid design which originated in London.
