SpoonThis silver spoon was made by the Edinburgh silversmith John Scott around 1642. It is one of two spoons found in a house in the High Street in Irvine in Ayrshire and is known as a disc-end spoon from the pattern at the end of the stem. The disc at the end of the stem is marked with the initials 'I F'. Scottish-made spoons of the 16th and 17th century are rare. Designs initially followed English and continental patterns, but the disc-end pattern was a distinctively Scottish type. Record detailsTo search on related items, click any linked text below.
