During this period the center of silversmithing in Canada was to be found in Quebec and the Atlantic provinces. Many of these smiths emigrated from Europe or were British loyalists who left the USA during the upheaval of the revolution. The marks often reflect the close connection between the Maritimes and Scotland. This listing is part of a collection of spoons made in the Maritime Provinces during this period.
