Sterling silver wine ticket or label for Whisky made and designed by Georg Jensen in Denmark around 1950. Note that the chain is not fixed on one end so it can be put around the neck of a decanter more easily than the fixed chain type of label. The label is very good quality, cast rather than stamped, and measures 1 1/2 inches across.

The enamel work done by Gorham in the late 19th century is considered to be of top quality and it is also extremely scarce. Here is a rare set of six beautifully crafted spoons in which every detail displays the high standards of the Gorham factory at that time: the enameling is crisp and wonderfully colored; the twisted stems have in their crease a delicate raised rope-like pattern, and the silver is gold washed. The backs are marked with the Gorham mark of the period — the lion, anchor and G — ...click for details

Colonial tablespoon by Joseph W. Hopkins (1730-1801), a Waterbury, Connecticut, silversmith whose work is quite scarce. It has a short midrib with a flat rounded end and a rounded drop. It is similar in form to a Hopkins spoon in the Yale University collection. The oval bowl shows very slight tipwear. There is a scratch in the bottom of the bowl which is visible in the photograph. The spoon is 8 1/4 inches long and has an interesting pricked monogram, K over S+L.

Nice George III sterling marrow scoop from a collection that came from Down East Maine. Measuring 7 7/8 inches, it is in good condition with no flaws. The marks are difficult to read because they were rolled in the finishing, but the date mark is quite clear and the London punch and lion passant are easily decipherable. The maker’s mark can be seen within the roll, but I cannot figure it out. Someone with better eyes or more familiar with the marks would probably be able to attribute it to a mak ...click for details
