A silver handle in three pieces from a caddy spoon, decorated with a foliate pattern within a dotted border on the upper face. On the back of the handle are four hallmarks: lion passant, bust, anchor, and lower case seriffed 'g' with a complete lower loop, and the maker's mark 'IS' within an oval. This suggests that the spoon was made in Birmingham in 1804. Similar handles of caddy spoons, which were used to measure tea, that date from the late Georgian period have been seen on the web.
