Caddy Spoons were, and still are, used to scoop a measure of tea from a caddy into a pot. They come in various shapes and designs and are one of the most collectible spoons available. They were first used from around the 1750's. Prior to 1781, Caddy Spoons and other small spoons which were produced by London Makers were only hallmarked with the Lion Passant for Sterling and the Makers Initials therefore it can be quite hard to date these early examples.
