Description

Stunning teaspoon hand-crafted by patriot silversmith Paul Revere

Beautiful teaspoon made by famous silversmith and patriot Paul Revere, with a 1.75″ long oval bowl and total length of 5.5″, stamped on the underside in italics with his maker's mark, "PR." The handle is handsomely engraved with an oval and floral scrollwork. In very good to fine condition, with some dings and dents to the spoon's bowl.

Remembered for his famous 'midnight ride' in April 1775 to warn his fellow patriots of the approaching British Army, which readied them for the important Battles of Lexington and Concord, Revere was one of the most prominent figures of the Revolutionary War era. He was equally renowned for his silverwork, which remains some of the most desirable in the world, coveted as important pieces of artwork in prominent museum collections around the world.
