This solid silver tray is 9" in diameter and weighs a substantial 12.8 T. oz. It is stamped W. Gale & Son (NY), suggesting it was made between 1853-66. This dating is fully consistent with the style of the piece. There is a second, incused rectangle that is blurred, but the last portion are the letters ES, which may indicate Gale, Wood & Hughes, or Gale and Hughes, two Gales partnerships. There is no standard designation, but Gale went to sterling very early on, so this could be coin or ster... Click for details

This sterling silver ladle is 13" long and weighs 6.0 T. oz. The pattern is XVth Century by Gorham. This is an 1890's design that Gorham produced only in a limited number of serving pieces. Its design inspiration is individualistic and thereby quite distinct from the predominant late Victorian and Art Nouveau styles of the time. This is finely crafted, with an especially appealing bowl that is 4" x 3 1/2" x 1 1/2" deep. The piece is in superb condition. There is no wear, the bowl is perfec... Click for details

The basic form of this 6 1/8" long silver sugar shell was widely produced, and particularly so in New England where this likely originated (it is marked on Sterling, with no maker's designation). The engraving on this, however, does distinguish the piece from more common examples. It is a floral interpretation, the blossom of which is ragged or hairy, and the leaves long and trailing. It fits artfully on the handle, which is also monogrammed "L" in a feathered script. The bowl is an appealin... Click for details

This must be a Charleston form as this is the third goblet of this form and decoration I have had from Charleston. This one is a bit later, with marks, pictured, for A.H.Hayden who, with W.G.Whilden, represented the last partnership of this dynasty which began in 1838 with his brothers Nathaniel and Sidney. This last partnership ended in 1863 when Hayden was in the Confederate Army and they subsequently set up business separately. This goblet must then date from about 1865 onwards. In fairly go...
