$125.00 Price for the set of twelve.
These twelve, matching, 4" long, 3.9 T. oz. the lot, likely cast rather than die struck, coffee spoons are as singular as they are appealing.
Made by Whiting, the company's "lion" emblem and "Sterling" are stamped on the backside of each piece.
Dating from late 19th century to early 20th centuries, and toward Art Nouveau in manner, this non-line pattern features a stylized, raised grape cluster and leaf motif on the terminal end.
The lower section of the handle has a raised leaf, scroll, and flower motif extending into an embossed surface bowl.
Each piece has an engraved "h" monogram in an individualistic font, again in an Art Nouveau fashion.
The entire set is in equally fine condition, with bright finishes and smooth, even, bowls.
Note: eleven are illustrated but there are twelve. One was inadvertently omitted from the photograph.
