Item Details
Description
James I Sterling Silver Seal Top Spoon

hallmarked London, 1622-1623, by Daniel Cary (ca. 1584-1642; free 1604), the seal with pricked monogram "KB".
l. 6-5/8", w. 1-7/8"; 1.34 t. oz.

Literature: David M. Mitchell, Silversmiths in Elizabethan and Stuart London: Their Lives and Marks (Woodbridge, Suffolk: Boydell Press, 2017), pp. 269-70
Timothy Arthur Kent, London Silver Spoonmakers, 1500-1697 (London: Silver Society, 1981), pp. 19, 26-27
Condition
In good condition with no issues noted beyond the expected wear, patina and scattered tiny nicks commensurate with age. Marked in the bowl with the London crowned leopard's head and on the reverse of the handle with the sterling lion passant, the date letter "e" for 1622-23, and the D enclosing C maker's mark of Daniel Cary. The lion's head nice and crisp, the marks on the handle all very slightly off-struck and a bit rubbed, but all are still fully legible.
