Ornate Antique Sterling Silver Crochet Hook
English * Hallmarked 1903
This antique crochet hook has a beautifully shaped handle bordered with lush scrolls. Flowers and pierced lattice work designs are in the center.
It is stamped with the English sterling hallmarks for Birmingham 1903 and the maker's mark for Adie & Lovekin Ltd.
The condition is excellent with no dents or other damage. The shaft and hook are steel and the top is nicely turned. It measures 5 1/8" long
and has a small hook,
about the same size as an American steel size 10.
I stand behind everything that I offer and
