Up for bid is a bright-cut and chased Victorian coin silver
preserve spoon with repousse fruit decoration. The spoon is 7 ¾ inches long and
weighs 38 grams. The bowl is nicely
chased with repousse fruits and leaves.
The handle has a twist stem and Philadelphia-style engraving and
engine-turning. It has not been monogrammed. There are no marks, but based on similar
marked pieces I suspect this was made by Peter L. Krider of Philadelphia.
Condition on the spoon is very good. There just normal signs of use. A fine old coin serving piece!
