Description
Spring Action Sterling Silver Fish Slice
Spring Action Sterling Silver Fish Slice, hallmarked from Edinburgh in 1896 with the makers mark being that of Hamilton & Inches.
Other side has duty head and another mark which is that of Samuel Hayne & Dudley Cater all be it the start of the mark is worn.
It would appear that the item was made by Hayne & Cater and quite possibly the other arm was damaged and Hamilton & Inches have made a new arm probably because it was easier to do so than repair the original.
In good order and measures 140mm in length.
