<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> </em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> This is a charming sterling silver spoon used most often for either sugar or tea. It is a continental piece. The Hallmarks are, from left to right: S.B.L. is the maker, then an F, a crown , a lion and the letter G. The G is probably the date. This is a very unusual piece. It has a farm scene and a bird in the bowl. The handle has a picture of George and some words in what appears to be old English. The handle looks like an old coin. It is very ornate. The handle is short. I have differing opinions as to whether it's the original handle or one redone. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: 2242</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:Good</td></tr><tr><td>Year:19th Century</td></tr><tr><td>Title:ENGLISH STERLING SILVER SIFTER OR TEA STRAINER</td></tr><tr><td>Type:Unknown</td></tr><tr><td>Location:Madison, Mississippi </td></tr></table>
