1840-1867 John Foulk Robinson Delaware Coin Silver Teaspoon, Wilmington Maker (12 g) MAX

$34.00
A scarce example of early American coin silver, this teaspoon was crafted by John Foulk Robinson of Wilmington, Delaware, during his working period from approximately 1840 to 1867. Robinson is a documented Delaware silversmith whose surviving work is uncommon, and examples of his spoons are represented in notable institutional collections, including Winterthur. Executed in coin silver, this teaspoon reflects the craftsmanship and regional character of nineteenth-century American domestic silver before the widespread adoption of standardized sterling marks. Measuring 5¾ inches in length and weighing 12 grams, this finely proportioned teaspoon is an appealing example for collectors of Delaware silver, American coin silver, and regional silversmithing. Its association with a scarce Wilmington maker adds historical interest and makes it a noteworthy addition to a collection focused on early American flatware. Dimensions: 5 3/4". Weight is about 12 grams.
