  The above unmarked picture back spoons have a scroll impression on the back of the bowl while the front side has a bright cut decoration. These may be American or English or maybe some other country. I have looked for a similar scroll in hope of identifying the maker to no avail. Any ideas on where these were made would be appreciated.

Very unlikely to be English. Most English fancy back spoons are Hanoverian pattern. And by the time Old English became the fashion it would be unusual for spoons to remain unmarked. The pointed Old English (or Celtic Point) pattern could suggest Scotland or Ireland but, again the combination with a fancy back would be pretty unusual. So, I would tend to think these are most likely to be American. IP: Logged |

Thanks agphile. They are pretty spoons and it is nice to have both the front and back decorated. IP: Logged |
