Description: A Scottish Provincial silver Toddy ladle in the Oar pattern, which is a scarce variant of Fiddle pattern (Fiddle without shoulders), only found in Scotland (Pickford, Silver Flatware, pg. 111). The ladle was made by Peter Lambert in Aberdeen, and is engraved with original owners initials RMR in script. The ladle has 3 hallmarks, makers mark PL between 2 thistles, these marks are well struck but blurred, so we assume the punches were worn. The thistle punch has a noticeable indent on the left hand side. Peter Lambert was born in Aberdeen, as was admitted to the Hammermen in 1804. He left Aberdeen in 1813, and subsequently moved from town to town looking for work, he is known to have worked in Dundee, Montrose and Berwick, and had spoons assayed in Newcastle and Edinburgh (Aberdeen Silver by Michael Wilson, page 60, a book we highly recommend).
