A rare Irish Georgian solid sterling silver crested serving spoon. It is hallmarked for Dublin 1803 with the makers mark being WL for William Law. It has been nicely designed having an fiddle pattern handle engraved with a bird crest possibly used by the Cargill Family - note this ties in with the small inscribed letters to the bowl back which reads IFC, note an I at this time was often used interchangeably with a J, hence it could be JFC - there can't be many Cargill's that could afford silver in and around Dublin at this time. It is in superb condition being free from dings splits and repairs.
