French Louis XVIII Coin & Silver 15 Inch Toddy Ladle with Turned Wood Handle dated 1824

A very long silver toddy ladle with a French coin with Louis XVIII’s head on one side and three fleur de lis and a date of 1824 on the other side.  The silver bowl has a decorative gadroon edging.  The wooden handle is long and has a turned or twist design and is capped on the end with a silver top and also silver joins the turned handle to the lower straight handle closer to the bowl.

There is an English Lion passant Sterling hallmark on the straight piece joining the lower handle to the bowl (and a slight early repair at the join of these two pieces).

Overall a lovely toddy ladle with a beautiful twisted handle and bright silver throughout – and very long at 15 inches.

Measures:  15 inches long.

Excellent condition.
