Description: A set of 4 German silver teaspoons (and a very similar tablespoon, see additional description at the bottom) with an intricate and beautiful design, made by the very prestigious firm of Daniel Vollgold & Son, who were the Court Jewellers to the Prussian Royal Family. The spoons are 800 standard and are great quality, in excellent condition, we love these spoons. The design features a cherub's head with flowing locks, set amongst scrolls, flowers and hanging fruit, the reverse has a shield shaped cartouche, engraved with the letter B in flowing script. The spoons have a baluster urn finial. All 4 spoons are hallmarked with makers mark (V) alongside 800, and the German crescent and crown in use since 1888, the marks have some wear but all are visible. Daniel Vollgold founded his business in Berlin in 1838, and was appointed Court Jeweller to the Prussian Royal family in 1860, and were still the Berlin Court Goldsmiths in 1903. They supplied silver to both Emperor's William I and Wilhelm II, and exhibited at the Berlin Industrial Exposition of 1879, where the first electric train built by Werner Siemens was demonstrated. Note - We have added a tablespoon with a very similar design to the teaspoons, the quality is also exceptional so we are convinced they are by the same maker. The tablespoon (18.8 cm, 46 grams) is marked 800, unfortunately no makers mark is present, the cartouche is engraved with previous owners name "Luise". At first glance the design seems the same, but the tablespoon has more intricate detail, better modelling of the head with flowing locks, and notably has an additional bearded figure on the back above the cartouche. The tablespoon is also in excellent condition, apart from 2 oxidation spots in the bowl. All information on this pattern and maker is most welcome.
