Are these British spoons?

[Brian J Owen]

Good afternoon gentlemen, could any one tell me if this is a British spoon? I cannot find any marks on it, but there again it is very pitted, and what dose anyone think why there's no handle, or what was the possible modification for ?

regards,

Brian

It looks correct, a fiddle pattern spoon. Rather than a modification, I imagine the handle was broken at the same time the damage to the bowl occurred.

Agreed……there’s a good thread here with plenty of examples for comparison….https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/213272-makers-of-ww1-knives-forks-spoons/

Thanks for your reply, and confirming that it's british, I was not to sure about the broken end, but it makes sense, 

Kind regards,
