Vintage Elizabeth II Sterling Silver Teaspoons | Edward Viner, Sheffield 1954
A matching set of six authentic mid-century sterling silver teaspoons, crafted by the renowned Sheffield silversmith firm Edward Viner (Viners Ltd) in the iconic and timeless Old English pattern.
Each piece features clean, unadorned lines culminating in an elegant upward-curving handle terminal, beautifully embellished on the front with a flowing decorative script monogram of the letter 'F'. At an average of ~19.3g per spoon, these are a notably heavy-gauge set with excellent hand presence.
A wonderful addition for serious silver collectors, sophisticated vintage tea services, or as a thoughtful heirloom gift with genuine mid-century historical charm.
