Rare and possibly unique large Queen's pattern sterling ladle by the renowned Philadelphia silversmith Peter L. Krider with beautiful aesthetic style engraving in the bowl and a perky rabbit at the bottom. Dating from about 1880, it measures 12 inches in length and is in virtually mint condition. The pattern is double struck, and there is a finely executed script monogram below the anthemion at the top. The ladle is quite heavy, 6 troy ounces and 13 pennyweights.

American silver manufacturers in the latter part of the 19th century made some high quality products. The firm of Dominick & Haff was notable; among their excellent items were sterling silver photograph frames, which were a popular item in the period. Here we have an assembled pair of a rare model.

There is a period script monogram "T" on the handles (a photograph of the monogram is available and can be emailed on request). The set weighs a tad more than 5 troy ounces and 3 pennywei ...click for details

Sterling silver soup ladle by the most famous woman silversmith of all time -- Hester Bateman. It has a period script monogram (we think it is a "T") and measures 12 1/8 inches long. There are some minor bruises on one side of the bowl; this really does not detract from the piece but is mentioned just for completeness of description. More photos are available and can be emailed on request.
