Antique Cased Set of Six Hallmarked Sterling Silver Teaspoons with Monogrammed Bowls
This is a cohesive set of six antique hallmarked silver spoons, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century (Victorian or Edwardian era). Each spoon features an unusual design choice where the high-script initials 'PBSC' are professionally engraved directly into the interior of the oval-shaped bowls rather than on the handles. The spoons are constructed with long, slender square-section stems that terminate in flattened, architectural 'seal top' style finials. The surface of the silver exhibits an aged patina with visible tarnish and light surface scratches consistent with use. The set is presented in its original fitted presentation case, which features a faux-shagreen or textured lizard-patterned exterior in white and black. The interior is lined with a vibrant royal blue velvet base and a gathered white silk or satin cream lid lining. While the hallmarks are located on the reverse of the stems (not fully legible in the overview), the quality of the engraving and the specialized case suggest high-quality craftsmanship intended for a commemorative gift or high-end domestic use. Condition is generally good with no visible bends to the stems, though the silk lining shows some minor foxing and staining typical of age.
