Antique Sterling Silver Hallmarked - Master Salt Spoon - 1864 London W. Southey

Description

Here is a master salt spoon with armorial design by William Southey of London.  The spoon is about 4¼ inches or 10.5 centimeters long.  These are master salt spoons and they have deep bowls much like a small ladle.  They have an armorial winged design on the front handle.  The are monogrammed with 3 initials which looks like JTM to me.  This listing is for a single spoon, but there are 3 spoons available.
Each weighs about 17 grams.
Each spoon is in excellent condition with no spotting or discoloration, but there are a few light scratches.
Each is hallmarked as shown in the pictures. I believe the 'i' date mark makes it 1864.  Please let me know if I am incorrect.  All the spoons are marked WS in a square.
