Antique GEM 1871 Reed Barton Oyster Ladle Silverplate Monogrammed H.

This is a 10” Silverplate Oyster Ladle from Reed and Barton, in the Gem pattern (c. 1871). It is monogrammed on the handle with the letter “H.” There is moderate amount of general wear and scratches on the inside and outside of the ladle, but is still a lovely example for use or display.
