Silver gilt spoon terminal comprising a small seated animal on a moulded capital. The figure is crudely cast and worn and now resembles a small dog, but the type would seem to be that of the lion sejant affonté even though the animal does not appear to have a mane. Three 15th Century examples of lion sejant spoons are recorded and the type was a popular form made in the West Country in the 16th Century and also in Norwich into the early 17th Century. On balance this example is probably a late 16th Century example but could possibly date from the early 17th Century, perhaps made in No…
