Silver : Sterling : Smalls
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2209 Sold
height 1 7/8; top diameter 2 inches, no monogram, weight 2.6 Troy ounces, excellent condition, marked as shown. Just the right size to hold a healthy belt of scotch...
This piece bears the craftsman's mark of both Robert Bean and Fletcher Carter. Also, let's give a shout out to the good folks at ONC, still going strong in Amesbury after one hundred years, who were kind enough to identify this cup as the "Roly Poly cordial."

Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2203 $350.00
a rare, diminutive example, 3 1/8 X 1 7/8 X just under 1/2 inches, weight 2.3 Troy ounces.

Old Newbury Crafters stuffing spoon,
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2202 Sold
length 12 7/8 inches, weight 4.11 Troy ounces, no monogram, excellent condition.

Westervelt MEDALLION teaspoon
Silver : Sterling : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2180 Sold
length six inches, weight 1.00 Troy ounces, no monogram, excellent condition, retailed by Wendell & Roberts.
Silver scholar and author D. Albert Soeffing describes this portrait as "a rather plain woman," and though it lacks the sophistication of some Medallions, there is a certain undeniable charm to her face. A great entry level item for the budding silver collector, should such a creature still exist...

Silver : Coin Silver : Flatware
Bruce Cherner Antique Silver
2169 $1650.00
Gale & Mosely, New York circa 1830, double struck-- for the uninitiated, this means the pattern is both front and back, length just shy of 8 1/2 inches, some very slight tine wear on a few (we've pictured the worst one in enlargement number four) but superb overall condition, weight 30.74 Troy ounces (!!) or 2.79 each on average, no monogram.
One would be hard-pressed indeed to find a better set of dinner forks.
