Description |
English: A complete silver trifid spoon with a floral decoration of post-medieval date 1670 - 1700AD. The handle has a flat section and increases in width towards its flat-ended terminal. The bowl is oval and concave and the stem is flat and rectangular in cross section and is crushed and distorted. At the point that the stem meets the bowl a 'rats tail' develops and is a third of the bowl in length. Using 'scratch engraving' a foliate design has been engraved on either side of the rats tail, there is one petal/leaf around the end of the rats tail. The stem widens after the half way point and is now broken but would have originally ended in three points. Both sides of the stem are decorated with a foliate design within a border with a larger flower at the terminal end. No maker's marks are visible. The length is 97mm, the width is 30mm and the weight 6.08g.
The trifid spoon is the earliest spoon of modern form (Snodin, p.29). This is a 'lace-back' example (Snodin, p.31), so named because of the lace like scrolling foliage engraved on the back of the bowl. Trifid spoons became popular in the 1670's possibly following the French examples imported during the time of the restoration and the style lasted up until around 1700. Similar examples has been recorded on the database (2012 T901, SUSS-69C4A3) and SUSS-FBF5B6. |
