Teaspoon by James R. Wright, Lexington, VA, c1850 Silver: Coin Silver: Southern: Pre 1900 stock# 696
click for details		North Hill Antiques (845) 357-4484 $85
Pinched-waist fiddle handle, pointed shoulders, script mono M L J on front; 5-7/8" in length. Condition is excellent, extended bowl tip unworn. Pinched-waist fiddles are not common in VA; Wright's proximity to TN & KY, where the style is quite common, probably had an influence here. See Hollan's "Virginia Silversmiths" for a full discussion of Wright and his work.

Cup and saucer by Brower & Rusher, NYC, c1840 Silver: Coin Silver: Hollowware: Pre 1900 stock# 799
click for details		North Hill Antiques (845) 357-4484 $575
Handled cup with 12 panels on raised ring fitted on 16-paneled saucer, also on raised ring, both engraved in feathered script RM over GBM. Dimensions as follows: cup 2-5/8" high, saucer 5-1/4" diameter; total weight is an imposing 7.25 Troy oz. Condition is excellent throughout. Which, of course, leaves open the question: what is the purpose of an uninsulated silver cup and saucer? One answer is that, in an opulent household, it was used for display, nothing more.

Teaspoon by John Peabody, Nashville, Tenn. Silver: Coin Silver: Southern: Pre 1900 stock# 695
click for details		North Hill Antiques (845) 357-4484 $200
Peabody's spoons are distinctive in design --slim oval-end downturned fiddle handles -- nothing quite like them by other makers. This piece has flared shoulders and a short reverse rib. The mono is EB in a feathered script. Length is 5-3/8". Condition is near-mint. This is probably the same John Peabody who worked earlier in Fayetteville, NC. The spoons pictured on p. 125 of "Silversmiths of NC" are not at all similar in design to this piece.
