Sterling Silver 925 1000 Arts & Crafts Plain Hammered Ladle, no Mono

Description: For sale is one Sterling Silver 925 1000 Arts & Crafts Handmade Hammered Ladle. Ladle is used but in very good condition but does show wear commensurate with age and use, please see photos. Ladle does have some identifying marks on the back of the handle that may be scratched on by the maker. Ladle has no monograms or inscriptions. Ladle measures ~ 5 1/2" and weighs ~ 40 grams. I haven't been able to find out who the 925 1000 hallmark belongs to but it is thought to be the mark of the Marshall Fields & Co. silver smith school. I have collected a lot of items with this mark and they do seem to be made by people with extremely varying levels of skill. Quite a few also have hand scratched/engraved marks that seem like something would be done inside a workshop with many people. Please see Photos and message me with any questions.
