Complete Set of 13 Silver Apostle Spoons
A Complete Set of 13 Silver Apostle Spoons
Harman & Lambert
Hallmarked 1936
Apostle spoons first appeared in the mid-15th century as significant and costly baptismal presents for godchildren. Made of silver, the spoon featured an intricately crafted image of an apostle at the terminal. Due to their expense, they were typically given individually. A complete set, which is highly rare, consists of 12 spoons. Even rarer are sets that include a thirteenth spoon depicting Jesus, known as the 'Savior' or 'Master' spoon.
This monumental set of 13 royal apostle spoons was created to celebrate the 1936 coronation of Prince Albert, King George VI of England, by Harman & Lambert. Complete with its original fitted case showcasing the Royal Crown insignia, this set is a rare example of reproduction apostle spoons that match the weight, quality and size of 16th and 17th-century originals.
Harman & Lambert was the combined name for London's two widely respected silversmith firms that joined forces in 1916. Before being absorbed by Harman & Co. Ltd., Lambert & Rawlings were the âSilversmiths to their Majesties and Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent' in the 19th century. Once part of the world-renowned Red McCombs silver collection, this set, complete with royal provenance and superb craftsmanship, is an exemplary example of a 20th-century faithful reproduction of a popular trend in silversmithing from the 16th century.
