Lot 332 , A George III Irish bright cut engraved silver basting spoon, 2.5in.

A George III Irish bright cut engraved silver basting spoon, with engraved monogram, maker, IK, Dublin, 1785, 11.5in, 2.5in.
Estimate £150-200

There is an engraved monogram to the top of the spoon. The bright cut engraving is perhaps becoming a little tired. There are visible minor surface scratches to the handle and bowl in general and there is a little cluster of small dings to the back of the bowl. The spoon tip is showing slight signs of wear. Overall condition is otherwise good, conducive with age and use. Marks clear although some slight rubbing to Hibernia.
