Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
Danvers, MA circa 1930, height 3 1/4; top diameter 2 5/8 inches, weight 5.75 Troy ounces, no monogram, some very light scratches but excellent overall condition.

Though his work is ardently sought by collectors, Porter's output was not always of consistent quality. His soldering was occasionally sloppy, and his hammer marks were at times random. Here, the seams are nearly invisible, and the art peen hammering (please see third enlargement) is laid out masterfully along the vertical axis.

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
length 8 inches (!!), weight 10.22 Troy ounces, a few extremely minor scratches in bowls (see first enlargement, 3rd spoon from top) but excellent overall condition, marked "Tiffany & Co STERLING PAT 1884. M", monogrammed as shown.

We suspect that not many of these spoons were produced, and many of those that survive are looking tired and worn. These will do your collection proud, and also enable you to take a very generous mouthful of soup!

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
New York circa 1825, length 12 1/2 inches, weight 4.52 Troy ounces, monogrammed "M" in period script with flourishes. There is a slight abrasion above the initial, and some very minor scratches in bowl as shown in enlargements three and four but the overall condition is outstanding.

Maltby Pelletreau was the second generation of this illustrious silversmithing family. His partnership with Bennett and Cook lasted only three years, so the date range for this item is pleasantly narrow. Thei...

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
Albany circa 1820, length 6 7/8 inches, total Troy weight 14.03 ounces, monogrammed "MM" in period script with flourishes, looking pretty much the same way they did upon leaving Messrs Shepherd & Boyd's establishment just over two hundred years ago.

Finding a set of twelve coin silver dessert spoons in any pattern is rare, but I'm hard pressed to think of the last time we had the privilege to offer a group of this quality (note the "flat" at the tip of each spoon) and decorative appeal. ...

SOLD
length 7 1/2 inches, weight 6.56 Troy ounces, monogrammed script "P," one small pinprick dent as shown in enlargement number two, but very fine overall condition.
All Items : Silver : Sterling : Flatware : Pre 2000 item #1467555 (stock #2499)
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
length 10 1/8 inches, weight 5.9 Troy ounces, gilt tines, excellent condition, marked and monogrammed as shown in fourth and fifth enlargements.

Though the gilding was probably a bit brighter in 1902, this is still an especially impressive example. For those of you who are not familiar with weights, 5.9 Troy ounces will feel wonderfully heavy in the hand!

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
4 1/8 by 2 5/8 inches (fits credit or business cards easily), weight 3.5 Troy ounces, no monogram, excellent original condition, model number 19D (please see third photo for marks).

This was probably a custom made item.

We've examined both doggies carefully with a high power loupe, and they appear to be 14k. No, we're not going to test them...

sold
with decorative bright cut engraving, length 5 3/8 inches, total Troy weight 2.64 ounces, monogrammed as shown in third enlargement. My apologies for only picturing one here, but they are all identical.

These are benchmark examples, looking today just as they did upon leaving the factory on Elmwood Avenue some hundred and fifty years ago. They are engraved (slightly differently) in an exceptionally well designed and well executed manner upon all three sides. Place pieces in this fine ol...

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
length just shy of 7 inches, total Troy weight 6.47 ounces, superb condition, marked and monogrammed as shown in fourth enlargement.

As we get further along in time from the patent date of 1900, it becomes much more difficult to find examples retaining the full floral detail which makes this fine old Durgin pattern so extraordinary. We're pleased to present these four to you, dear reader!

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
length 6 1/8 inches, monogrammed obverse as shown in third photo, some very light wear but fine overall condition, total Troy weight 10.31 ounces.

Other web pages which will remain nameless are still hoping to get the big bucks for these, but we are eminently realistic.

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
unmarked but probably Scandinavian circa 1880, diameter 5 7/8 inches, enamel appears to be perfect and we've found no breaks in the silver. Add a zero on to our price and you still couldn't buy a new one of comparable quality...

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver

height 6 inches, widest section of base 5 1/8 inches, superb color and condition, monogram "GVL" (?) script obverse. We've bought and sold many Gorham novelty items, but this is certainly among the best of its class...

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
Sale Pending
circa 1950,length 16 & 7.5 inches; weight 4.25 & 1.95 Troy ounces respectively, excellent condition and color, both clasps are tight and in good working order, no monogram, marked as shown in 3rd and 4th photos. We tend to have tunnel vision when it comes to Danish silver jewelry and focus only on Georg Jensen, but these pieces are of a similar or higher quality and quite pleasing to the eye. Einar's father Arent Dragsted was jeweler to the royal court of Denmark. One would be hard pressed t...
All Items : Silver : Sterling : Flatware : Pre 2000 item #811492 (stock #1691)
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
length seven inches. No monogram, heavy (11.0 oz. Troy the set), generously proportioned and in fine condition with only slight wear to the high points. Given Yours Truly's horrible proclivities toward fussiness, we do have one complaint: they're a bit over-polished and much oxidation has been removed from the low areas. Time, however, will cure this sin...

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
large (9 3/4"), heavy (6.26 oz. Troy) and in immaculate condition, these tongs don't appear to have suffered much use during the last ninety some-odd years. Bought new, they'd probably set you back almost as much as a small Mercedes, if indeed ONC still makes this piece.

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
with high relief cast bust of Van Dyck, length 9 inches, weight 3.24 Troy ounces, no monogram. Truly one of Antoine Heller's greatest designs, and among Gorham's most sculptural patterns.

There is a file cut (visible from side and reverse only; see fourth photo) which we've pictured in excruciating detail, and some light pitting on the blade which we've mostly polished out and probably will address a bit more, as time allows. Aside from this, the condition is excellent.

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
SOLD
Canton or Hong Kong circa 1840 with carved mother of pearl handles, length eight inches, monogrammed "WL" (?), fine condition although one blade shows evidence of being straightened (see fourth photo).

Forbes lists one set of dessert knives, #252 shown in figure 75, but these would appear to be quite rare.

No, dear reader, you're not daft though I may be, there are only five pictured here. Yes, we do have the sixth and it is no different than these!!
