Medicine Spoon - Part 2

When I started looking  for Medicine Spoons, I thought I would find small spoons that one would use for a child. I was wrong. There were a few that I showed in an earlier post.  For the most part what I found, with the exception of the Tiffany patterns, were partially covered spoons. But each example was unique in its own way. I continue my search for more examples.

 Irian by Wallace (3 3/8 inches)

 

WSC7 pattern by Webster (4 3/4 inches)

 

 

Cheese Pick

The Cheese Pick is an unusual piece found in most of the older sterling patterns. Samples here very in length from 6 inches to 7 7/8 inches. All have teeth on the end of the slightly curved blade at the end. The number of teeth varying from two to four. Most are flat handled, however two examples here are hollow handled.



King George By Gorham (7 3/4 inches)



Imperial Chrysanthemum by Gorham (6 1/8 inches)



Luxembourg by Gorham (6 1/8 inches)

New Vintage by Durgin

New Vintage was introduced by Durgin in 1904. It is a fairly straightforward pattern with a scallop shell adorning the top of the terminal and a bunch of grapes draped beneath it  surrounded on the sides by (what looks to me like) acanthus leaves wrapped around the edges. The stem is simple but elegant and the serving pieces I found were not particularly fancy.
