About the Item
A complete set of 12 sterling silver The Tichborne Spoons from The Heritage Collection.
Nine of the figures featured on the finials represent the Nine Worthies, a distinguished group of historical, legendary, and scriptural figures celebrated during the Middle Ages as symbols of chivalry. This group includes King Arthur, Charlemagne, Guy of Warwick, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Hector of Troy, King David, Joshua, and Judas Maccabeus. In addition to these, the collection also features Queen Elizabeth I, Christ, and St. Peter. The concept of the Nine Worthies holds significant cultural and artistic importance across Europe, particularly in literary and artistic traditions in France and beyond.
These spoons are considered unique and have been described as one of the most important sets of silver spoons in England. However, their early history remains a mystery. The spoons first gained attention in 1858 when they were sold as part of a retiring dealer's stock. The sale catalogue claimed that they had been presented to Sir Robert Tichborne during his tenure as Lord Mayor of London in 1657. Although no documentary evidence exists to support this claim, it is believed that the spoons were acquired by the Tichborne family of Hampshire, where they remained in the family’s possession until 1914.
