Gorham Grecian Coin Silver Cheese Scoop
Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends 
1021f $ 185
It seemed to be a mid 19th century practice to create large cheese scoops, and this example made by Gorham in Grecian follows that mode. It measures 9 3/8" long and weighs approximately 2.3 T. oz. In keeping with the pattern, the shank is tubular (and solid), with the fan or leaf element of the design surmounting the end. The scoop itself presents rather elegantly, with a long, slender shoulder area, and high, sweeping sides on the relatively demurely-scaled working portion. This is entirely... Click for details
