Since my spoon had no provenience number and has very few details on it I had to guess what kind of spoon this was and what century it came from, so this is what I could find:
I think that the spoon is a Rat Tail spoon because the bowl reinforcing is shaped like a Rat-Tail spoon, but instead of the bowl being in the shape of an elliptical it is shaped like an ovate. The handle is shaped like an Old English spoon that dates from the 17th century and on. Also, the bowl's profile is shallow, the handle is parallel sided, downturned on the end and has no details on it. I think that the spoon was made of medal then covered in silver.
