Silver Spoon by Theodore Dubosq, Jeweler
Famed for Later Territorial Gold

19th Century Silver Table Spoon by Theodore Dubosq. Prior to traveling to California and striking the Territorial gold coins that gave him lasting fame, Theodore Dubosq was a jeweler in Philadelphia who also made silver products. Guides to American silver hallmarks note his "active" period as c. 1829 to 1850. This table spoon, approximately 7 1/8 inches long with a triangular bowl, has an engraved letter D within a simple wreath stamped on the end of the stem. On the back of the spoon is the simple hallmark, THEO : DUBOSQ / PHILADELPHIA. Attractive condition overall with only a few minor dents and scratches.
