These Tongs are a vary rare item, l have only seen two other pairs before, one in Ian Pickfords book on "Flatware" and another on www.silversugartongs.com 
 
They have a rather unsightly repair on the arm which covers the maker's name, but l intend to have this removed and repaired in a better fashion.l hope the makers name will become apparent.
 
This pair were purchased from America so they are very well travelled
 
l have also removed the repair plate to try to see who the maker was, l believe it is John Lambe, although that is by no means certain.lf you have any ideas please let me know
