Rare Benjamin Burt Early American 18thc. Coin Silver Shellback Serving Spoon
A famous maker, Benjamin Burt, of Boston made this wonderful shellback serving spoon sometime between the mid to late 1700s. Master gold and silversmith, Mr. Burt both learned the trade from his equally famous father John, and his siblings, and was master to many other notable makers. This incredibly strong looking spoon, is just that-no skimping on silver content here, and the sweet shell just above the drop makes it his very own brand of spoon. A special spoon approaching 300 years old has the longevity to tell a story, and this one’s written all over it in character! This rare find, from a man whose wares are housed in the great museums of this country, is a welcome choice. This gracious spoon remains in good antique condition. See condition description for exceptions. And will continue to endure with the loving care of a collector! Length: 8in (20.3cm). Weight: 1.45 troy oz (45g). This item is in the category “Antiques\Silver\Coin Silver (.900)”. The seller is “shrinkflyer” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped worldwide.

A contemporary of John Burt who designed and created a caster for David’s son William and his wife-to-be, must have been quite an honor! Northey has pieces at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and the famous silver collection at Yale University. In addition, he was master to his children who became well-known silversmiths-a family of makers! The delicate shellback which remains largely intact as far as wear goes, makes this wonderful spoon special, indeed. It remains in good antique condition (see exceptions in the condition description) with age appropriate wear, and bears a monogram EC to the handle. This is certainly a collector’s find!
