Up for bid is an early Victorian sterling berry spoon in a
bright-cut pattern by W. Faber & Sons of Philadelphia, as is. The server is
9 inches long and weighs 58 grams. It
has a fluted bowl with a stippled interior highlighted with bright-cut
engraving. The downturned handle has bright-cut
engraving on the front. A monogram has
been removed from the handle front. The piece is marked “STERLING” and "W.
FABER & SONS".
Condition on the server is fair. There is a shallow divot and rough scratches
on the handle front where a monogram was removed, but otherwise there are just
normal signs of use. Still an attractive
old serving piece!
