VERY RARE VICTORIAN SILVER KING'S HUSK/SCROLL ROSETTE DESSERT SPOON, LONDON 1849, BY GEORGE ADAMS.
I am offering for auction this very rare variant of no specific named pattern, but Pickford's Flatware page 127 describes it as a combination of elements of the King's Husk and Scroll Rosette pattern, with Husk shells to the back, front and heel. He also states that finding any pieces would be difficult, so, here is a superb example of this very rare King's variant. This spoon is in ex...cellent collectable condition, no dents, no damage at all. The hallmarks are very clear to read as mentioned above. It has a good unworn bowl, nor any crest or initials. It is of good gauge, typical of George Adams flatware:-
Length of spoon 18.2 cms Weight of spoon 62 gms
