An early production piece, this 6 1/8" long, 1.1 T. oz., sugar spoon in Frontenac is stamped with the "Indian head" emblem of the Simpson, Hall, Miller division of International Silver, along with "Pat." and "Sterling."
The design is Art Nouveau in manner and portrays lily blossoms on the slightly upturned handle, front and back, as well as on the interior shoulders of the sinuous, shell-shaped, bowl.
The detail of the work is precise and rendered in relief.
Never monogrammed, this remains in immaculate estate condition, free of polishing wear, dents or bends in the bowl, and shows a brilliant finish.
