Antique Sheffield silver set of 3 salt spoons, 18th or early 19th C. Sheffield silver on copper. These very unusual tiny silver spoons have clawfeet and human faces in high relief like miniature sculptures. Salt spoon upper shaft has scrolls centered by a human mask. Salt spoon lower shaft is a scaly bird leg with clawfoot holding the bowl. Salt spoon back has rosette, scrolls and one talon gripping the bowl. Tiny spoons less than 3 inches L. Unidentified mark may be French (too tiny to photograph). Some spotting in bowls from salt but no cracks, breaks, or repairs: very sound and useable. Just the thing for a poultry dinner party! Choice collector's unusual item -- great conversation piece.
