Vintage Thursday Thingie: Silver Serving Spoons

I'm so glad to be back participating in Vintage Thursday Thingie hosted by Suzanne. This week I thought I'd share some family heirloom silver serving pieces from my mother's side of the family. These are truly beautiful Art Deco pieces.



These are a pair of serving spoons...notice the wonderful flowers engraved in the bowl of the spoons...



and the angled leaves on the handles.



Here's the mark but I don't really know what it means.



This is a little gravy ladle...it is really exquisite and the photographs just don't do it justice.

The bowl is fluted and the handle is curved so that it would fit nicely in the gravy bowl. Enlarge the photos to see the wonderful bird engraved on the front of the handle...




and the wheat stalks engraved on the back. (The dark is not tarnish-just a shadow caused by the curvature of the handle.)




Enlarge to read the mark on this little gem...why, of course, it reads Tiffany and Co.!







Hop on over to Suzanne's...that's at Coloradolady to see more vintage treasures.
