Antique British mustard bowls and ornate spoons. Shown with £1 coin for size comparison, and also shown with sugar bowl. These things are the babies of the collection, real small but still detailed!! Not yet cleaned, as found.

Hi Pete! These are London hallmarks. The shield shape T would be 1894. The maker looks like Horace Woodward and Co Ltd who were registered the year before. The proper spoons are the lobed ones with the same marks. The same "T"? It's hard to see.
Hi vetraio50, I am in awe of your knowledge, fantastic, thank you. Yes I have looked at the lobed spoons, they have the same T. Amazing given the small size of these things that they have stayed with the matching bowls and not been lost!! Thanks again.
