This rare set of teaspoons are modelled in the slender Celtic Point design and are beautifully engraved with bright cut borders and a navette shaped cartouche, with chevron above. The cartouche contains a contemporary Crest. The Spoons are in excellent condition and display thick tips to the bowls. Each is well marked on the reverse with STERLING and GIBSON. This is a design peculiar to Ireland, however Cork examples are very rare, especially a complete set.
