Sweet little teaspoon, c. 1790s-1800s, with a pointed bowl and end, a shellback, and a feathered monogram with an attractive squiggly flourish, marked T.S. Who is T.S.? IP: Logged |

Could be Thomas Shields, active in Philadelphia 1765-1791. However the marks shown for him online have a period in the middle between the T and S whereas yours has a period at the bottom after both the T and the S. (T.S.) IP: Logged |

Lovey, spoon Polly, I will look when I have a chance... I believe it's called a Celtic point? And could it be a little before 1790? Let the experts at it! IP: Logged |

Unless park is right and it's Thomas Shields (but the marks are different), it's not in Belden, and it's not on wev's site either. Wev, any ideas? IP: Logged |

Sorry, preoccupied and missed this thread. That said, I have nothing to offer off the top of my head. I will poke around and see if anything pops up. IP: Logged |

It very well could be--Richard sells silver at a flea market I often go to, and I might well have bought this from him. You'd think I would remember! It's only a year ago. I'll hunt it out of my drawer and compare details. IP: Logged |
