$80.00 Price for the set of four.
Relatively lengthy at 6", with slender, Fiddle Tipt handles in a style that is particular to Baltimore where they were made, this group of four, matching, teaspoons weigh 2.3 T. oz.
Each one is stamped "S. Kirk & Son" along with the standard mark "10.15," which is roughly equivalent to coin silver. This specific combination of marks was used 1846-61.
Each piece has a feathered script "EVE" monogram engraved on the front and an exposed thumb drop on the bowl reverse.
In very fine condition, they are free of polishing wear and have bright finishes. The bowls are smooth and even with well-formed tips free of wears, although two of them show some slight, shallow dimpling in the bases.
