The "tasseled" one seems to be, as already said, a Hardy Halycron. I have found a picture on th'ebay in Baily's Magazine June 1908 - the Art of Angling page 496 for sale at £20+.

The large spoon is neither it would be stamped Hardy or Farlow, they stamped just about everything especially Hardy, some of the tiny stuff like the Halcyon might have gone unmarked due to how tiny they are to get it on the fins, and Hardy did those (it was for use with a fly rod). that said I have some tiny Fly spoons and a 3cm spoon by Hardy and they are all stamped, my small Halcyons are not.
