1770 Michael Keating Dublin Irish Sterling Silver Teaspoon, Feather Edge with Erased Hand Holding Cross Crest (24 g) LRC
$80.00
A fine Georgian Dublin sterling silver teaspoon made in 1770 by the Irish silversmith Michael Keating. This elegant example features a beautifully detailed feather edge border, a refined decorative style associated with high-quality 18th-century Irish silver. The reverse of the handle bears an engraved armorial crest depicting a hand holding a cross, now partially erased with time, preserving a subtle trace of its original heraldic history. Measuring just over 6.5 inches in length and weighing 24 grams, this teaspoon has excellent proportions and a pleasing weight for its size. It remains in very good antique condition with an attractive patina and surface character consistent with more than two centuries of use. A wonderful example of early Dublin silver and a desirable piece for collectors of Georgian Irish flatware.
Dimensions: just over 6.5" in length.
Weight is about 24 grams.
CODE: LRC
