1780-1810 Daniel Dupuy Philadelphia Coin Silver Tablespoon Pair Pelican Birdback (132 g)

$700.00
Offered for sale, a rare American tablespoon pair by Daniel Dupuy of Philadelphia. According to Hollan, there were four or five Philadelphia makers who employed the pelican in its piety on pictureback spoons. Dupuy, however, appears to be the only such maker to make a left-facing pelican. Condition of the birds is rubbed, but these are very difficult to find. Marked with the cursive D Dupuy mark in a cartouche and marks are clean. This spoon has been engraved for the owner in period script with what looks like "McS" Weight: 132 grams Dimensions: 9.25" Check out some of my other sterling silver here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/DCSILVERSHOP?ref=search_shop_redirect§ion_id=7399760 Pounce on this terrific set or just browse around the shop! https://www.etsy.com/your/shops/DCSILVERSHOP
