Label TextThe style of these spoons is based on Celtic—medieval Irish—forms, a style that was promoted and made popular by Liberty and Company, a decorating and furnishing firm. Archibald Knox was known for his designs in this style. These spoons would have served as models for sets which could be ordered by prospective patrons.
