Featured Georgian Scottish Silver Ladle (Glas. 1832).

Took a bit of creativity, but I think I've correctly identified it!



I see a maker's mark, a duty mark, the assay mark for Glasgow, a Lion Rampant, and an "N" for 1832.

 

It is lovely, Shangas, and I agree, Glasgow 1832.
The mark could be for David Crichton Rait, @Bakersgma , @DragonflyWink ?

 

Very nice find, Shangas! Well, the only DCR in Glasgow is Rait and the dates of his registration in Glasgow cover the proper time period, so I think you're probably correct!

I know nothing about this subject, but I admire your efforts and success.

 

I'm not at all familiar with Scottish silver. I've handled MABYE...three or four pieces in my life - including this one. So the hallmarks threw me for a bit.

I knew the Lion Rampant is the Scottish purity mark, and that's all I knew. The assay mark was a complete mystery until I started researching Scottish marks in more detail.

 

It's rarer, and that can massively increase the value. Nice thing. Rait did ladles a great deal.

William IV rather than Georgian.
