Victorian pudding spoon, hallmarked 1856, Birmingham. Maker is George Unite. Ornate handle hallmarked on ferrule, and pretty spoon bowl hallmarked on stem reverse. Lovely picture-back detail to spoon, with acanthus scrolls. Spoon measures 20 cm long (8 inches). The handle finial design has some compression dents from being laid rather too hard on the table, but these are hidden by the ornate pattern. This is the type of handle which is basically hollow, being fitted over a rod and joining the bowl stem at the ferrule. This is a little loose, and has some tiny fraying at the cuff, but its faults are mostly hidden by the scrolling design. Very pretty display item. Bowl and stem are in very good condition.
