Unusual and striking, these coin silver sugar tongs are 6 3/8" and in excellent condition, with no bends or dents. They have long arms with squared shoulders. There is a bright cut cartouche around a period monogram. It is marked 4 times with a script "JS". I have not located this mark but am basing my guess an the first 2 letters in the "J Sayre" mark. New York Ca 1805.

I put this 6 3/8" sauce ladle in the early 19th century catagory because coffin ends were usually made then. However, I believe this piece was made in the 1840's, probably custom made, to go with some already existing coffin end spoons. It is marked "P. Dickinson" in a serrated rectangle. See "Belden" page 135 "other marks known". The condition is excellent, no dents or breaks. Ca 1845.
