6 x George V Silver Grapefruit Spoons, London 1930
This is an attractive Set of Six George V Sterling Silver Grapefruit Spoons. The spoons have the distinctive sharp pointed bowl that is typical of grapefruit spoons and the tops of the stems have a swag and flower design. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.
The spoons were made by Josiah Williams & Co of Bristol and assayed in London in 1930. Josiah Williams & Co were a hugely successful firm of silversmiths, the biggest in England outside of London, Birmingham and Sheffield. They traced their history back to Robert Williams succeeding to the business of William Woodman in around 1838. The firm passed through several generations of the Williams family becoming Josiah Williams & Co in 1879. Later partners included George Jackson and David Fullerton before they became a limited company in 1925. They finally ceased trading around 1940.
Condition is extremely good, with no dings or dents and just the minimal superficial surface wear that you would expect with use and the passage of time. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
Each spoon is 13.1cm / 5.16ins long and the set of six together weighs in at a substantial 91.3g / 3.22oz of solid Sterling Silver.
The principal hallmarks, on the undersides of the bowls, are nice and clear to read but the makers' marks are quite rubbed. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the leopard's head assay mark for London, the Gothic date letter p for 1930 and the D.F makers' mark for David Fullerton of Josiah Williams & Co.
Shipping in the UK is £12.00 by Royal Mail Special Delivery, which includes cover for the value of the spoons.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
