Farrington & Hunnewell Twist Handle Master Butter Knife
click for details
This mid 19th century item is marked "F & H" flanked by a caret on either side, for Boston's Farrington & Hunnewell Company. It is a 6 7/8" long coin silver master butter knife. It has a twisted shank, with a broad, scalloped handle end. Although not particularly heavy at approximately 1.0 T. oz., the piece has a solid feel. The twisted section seems especially robust. The blade and handle are both monogrammed in matching period scroll and leaf design elements, and have central circles. Th... Click for details

Heavy, Large Bright Cut c. 1870 Boston Tongs
click for details
This pair of tongs are substantial. The measure 5 3/4" long, are 1 1/4" wide at the arch, and weigh 1.8 T. oz. The style is without question Boston from the third quarter of the 19th century. This origin and date is confirmed by the retailer's stamp, "Crosby, Morse & Foss," a partnership which dates narrowly from 1869 to 1875. They are also marked "925" for sterling, but less than ten years earlier they would have been to a coin silver standard, which many pieces in this genre are. The arms... Click for details

Gorham Grecian Coin Silver Cheese Scoop

Gorham Grecian Coin Silver Cheese Scoop
click for details
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

Crisp basket at handle end and 12-lobe shell drop on bowl back, flared shoulders, shaded script mono C A on front; 6-1/4" long, 1-3/4" x 1-3/8" oval bowl. Condition is near-mint. The series of marks tell an interesting story. According to McGrew's "Manufacturers Marks," the ladle was made in the NYC shop of I.W. Forbes and retailed by Chauncey Johnson in Albany. The incised D is a quality sign often used in Albany. Neat piece.

Gorham Saxon Stag Coin Silver Berry Spoon
click for details
Measuring 9" long and weighing 2.2 T. oz., this berry or other serving spoon dates from the mid 1860's. The pattern is Saxon Stag by Gorham. In this instance, the retailer was Starr & Marcus of NYC, as marked. The pattern consists of a cast and applied stag's head set on a shank that is essentially the same as Gorham's Byzantine. Otherwise the piece is without additional design elements save for the scalloped and grooved bowl which is something of a stylized shell form. There are very sligh... Click for details

Large Mid 19th Century Engraved Pie Server

This coin silver pie server is large, measuring 10 3/8" long overall, and with a blade that is 4 5/8" by 2 7/8". It is also heavy, weighing 2.9 T. oz. It was made by Syracuse's Bunnell and Shreuder (1853-57), whose eagle/BS/arm pseudo hallmark is imprinted on the reverse.

18thC ladle by Munson Jarvis, Stamford,CT & St.John, NB
click for details
This is a huge piece -- 15-3/8" long. It has an oval-end handle, which ordinarily means that it was made c1790. But circumstances suggest that it was probably made 10 years earlier. Here is what we can glean from the literature: In Stamford, Jarvis was a silversmith and blacksmith. He was also a British loyalist and, at the end of the Revolution in 1783, he fled to New Brunswick. There he was a merchant, says Belden. John Langdon, in "Canadian Silversmiths," adds that "Records do not indicat... Click for details

Durgin Strawberry Pure Coin Sugar Shell

"Pure coin," as this 5 7/8" long, moderate weight sugar spoon is marked, is a mid 19th century term generally associated with the Boston area, and indeed that is the case with this. It is stamped "A. Stowell" for the Boston retailer, while this Strawberry pattern is an early design made by Durgin of Concord, New Hampshire. The one other mark is "Patent." It has a shell bowl and an Old English "S" monogram on the reverse. The condition is excellent. There is no visible wear, with the strawbe... Click for details
