Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2273 $375.00
length 8 3/4 inches, weight 7.3 Troy ounces, no monogram, a few minor scuffs in gilding of bowl which we've greatly exaggerated in photo number three and a tiny nick in the nose (reverse of spoon; see fourth image) but exemplary overall condition, no monogram.
As the age of such grand Victorian era silver patterns stretches well past the one hundred year mark, we are finding it increasingly difficult to locate objects such as this which look pretty much the same way now as when they left... Click for details

Cornelia Anna Ritch christening cup
Silver : Coin Silver : Hollowware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2264 Sold
Cornelia Anna Ritch (1847-1916) may well have been born with a silver spoon in her mouth. We know for sure that at the age of six, she had a fine looking coin silver cup in her hand.
Her great great great grandfather, Henry Ritch, was among the original settlers of Greenwich, CT, having received a grant of three acres there on May 19th, 1686. Her family has always been among the town’s leading citizens, comprising notable attorneys, quarry owners, and the first successful oyster... Click for details
