About the Item
Sterling Berry Spoon by Mary Sumner, Important Woman Silversmith Early 19th c. The spoon is very delicate with an embossed berry and leaf pierced bowl. It has brightwork on the handle and has never been initaled. Mary was an English silversmiths active at the beginning of the 19th century. She was the wife of plateworker William Sumner I and registered her first mark on 18 March 1807; after his death. At the time her classification was given as spoonworker. A second mark was registered in partnership with Eliza on 31 August 1809; a third mark, also in partnership with her daughter, followed on 21 August 1810. Eliza's classification, too, was given as spoonworker; her marital status was given as single, while her mother registered as a widow. Their address was listed as 1 Clerkenwell Close. Three pieces by the Sumners are owned by the National Museum of Women in the Arts. Women silversmiths and their work of the early 19th c are rare.
