RARE ANTIQUE ENGLISH STERLING SILVER MEAT SKEWER LETTER OPENER ~1785 R. CROSSLEY
This is an extraordinary antique meat skewer. The 11″ skewer weighs in at 76g or 2.1 ounces and features an unusual, highly ornate (for the time) double bead and reed pattern on both front and back with an oval cartouche monogrammed with hard to distinguish initials in lovely brite work. The skewer is deeply and crisply marked with the crowned leopard for London, the lion passant for sterling, the lower “k” date mark for the year 1785, the King George III duty mark and the “RC” makers mark for Richard Crossley a London silversmith registered in 1782. The skewer is in with no bends, breaks or repairs and only minor wear commensurate with age & 227 years of gentle use. A wonderful, rare & beautifully crafted skewer to add to your collection.
