Gorham MEDICI, OLD hooded aspargus server
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2312 Sold
length 9 3/4 inches, weight 5.38 Troy ounces, monogrammed "F" (reverse), a bit brighter than we'd like but still with minimal wear to the high points. Marked with Gorham trademark, star, sterling, copyrighted (twice!!), and datemark for 1886.
Even without the exquisitely engraved blade this would have been a rare find, so we're doubly pleased. Note: although this server is hollow handled, we do not believe it to be weighted.

2305 Sold
with applied foliage and a blossom over acid etched decoration on hammered background, gilt bowl, no monogram, excellent condition, length 5 3/4 inches, weight 1.60 Troy ounces, marked "sterling" overstruck by "c".
This unusual combination of etched and applied decoration lends the piece a three-dimensional quality which is quite successful, artistically.

Towle LAFAYETTE nut spoon
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2300 On Hold
length 8 1/2 inches, weight 2.55 Troy ounces, monogrammed as shown, fine condition.
Other pages on this internet show a scrawny 5 1/2 inch item which they're trying to pawn off as the nut spoon. We beg to differ. And if you'll allow me to indulge myself in some shameless salesmanship, I will state that pierced servers are eminently useful, and the pointed antique patterns fit in well with any others.

Durgin FAIRFAX pea spoon
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2293 Sold
For our first listing of 2018, let's return to some good old fashioned pattern silver, a subject in which few folks seem to have any interest but we'll give it a shot because I'm a glutton for punishment and thrive on rejection.
Retailed by Boston's own late lamented and very elegant Bigelow Kennard, this implement is 8 5/8 inches long, weighs 2.76 Troy ounces, has no monogram and is in excellent condition. If memory serves me correctly, this is the first pea spoon we've ever offered in... Click for details

Tiffany STRAWBERRY berry spoon, conch
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2280 Sold
or "kidney" shaped bowl, length 9 5/8 inches, weight 4.27 Troy ounces, gilt bowl, excellent condition.
Granted, this is not the rarest piece of Tiffany flatware you'll encounter while surfing the interwebz, but several features do make it stand out from the crowd: 1) the overall color, condition and lack of polishing wear 2) the exceptionally well executed and decorative Art Nouveau monogram (see third photo) which I can not decipher, and 3) the eminently reasonable price tag.
