Lebkuecher Sterling Arts & Crafts Petit Fours Tongs
Silver: Sterling: Flatware
Old Friends 
657b $ 85 HOLD
The dates for the maker of this piece, Newark, New Jersey's Lebkuecher & Co. range narrowly on either side of 1900, although the principals had long involvement with the silver industry as a whole. Often associated with the arts & crafts movement, the style of these petit four or pastry tongs, identified as item 2340, goes in that direction. They are 5" long overall, with a pair of 1 1/2" by 2" serving grips. These are reticulated and engraved in a pattern that matches the engraving on the to... Click for details

Gorham King George Large Sterling Dinner Fork
Silver: Sterling: Flatware
Old Friends
655b $ 42 each, multiples available
Dating from 1894, King George was the fourth, and last in the evolutionary series of this classic English design that Gorham produced. The scale on this follows after its namesake pattern. It is 7 7/8" long, large by American standards, and exceptionally heavy weight at 2.5 T. oz. Gorham probably wanted to assure that this line could go toe to toe with Tiffany's popular English King of the same period, and indeed it does, in both design and sense of presentation. This item has an Old English... Click for details

Silver: Sterling: Flatware
Old Friends
654w $ 1350
Tiffany produced asparagus servers with a variety of tines. This version is identified in Hood's book "Tiffany Silver Flatware" as "crossed tine" (page 100, figure 127). Indeed, this very example in "Grape" (within the Vine series) is illustrated. This form is particular to Tiffany. It is also frequently reproduced, often by clumsy casting methods. This example is original and fully authentic. The marks are precise and clear, and include an "M," dating this no later than 1891. The blade a... Click for details

Solomon Hougham, London 1804, "Coffin End" Spoon
Silver: Sterling: Flatware
Old Friends
652b $ 30
The coffin end style which is characterized by angled shoulders on the tip of the handle is a decidedly American style. This 5 3/8" long sterling silver made by Solomon Hougham in 1804, within the coffin end period, in London is in this manner, so the Atlantic was no barrier to a common design motif. This is quite appealing, with a very slight tipt end on the reverse, and beveled shoulders. It has a thumb drop on the heel of the well-shaped bowl. There is no monogram or removal. The conditi...

This sterling silver child's cup has singular charm. It stands 2 3/4" high to the lip, has a top opening of 2 3/8" and weighs just over 2.3 T. oz. It has a footed, flat-bottomed base, and a bordered top rim with bead detailing. The unusual feature of the piece is its wire handle that is formed into a slip knot.

Krider & Biddle (Phila.) "Tulip" Sterling Coffee Spoon
Silver: Sterling: Flatware
Old Friends
650b $ 18 each, multiples available
Whether this pattern was ever given a name, the obvious identifier on it is the cluster of tulips set midway on the handle, and it therefore frequently called "Tulip." The maker is Krider and Biddle of Philadelphia, whose "KB" mark appears on the reverse, along with "925." It dates from c. 1865. This example is a 4 3/4" long coffee spoon with a gold washed bowl. There is an Old English "h" monogram. The piece is in flawless condition.
