Wedding Spoon in Chantilly

Every once in a while one comes upon a truly unique piece and here is one. Chantilly by Gorham is the only pattern (I have been able to find) that has a Wedding Spoon. Most  patterns have your Wedding Cake Knife, but not a Wedding Spoon. And, it is a lovely piece, the bowl being decorated with bells. And, since it is dated, I assume, one could get one dated the year of their nuptials. Who knew?

Landers No. 2 by Baker Manchester

Landers No. 2 was issued by Baker Manchester in 1900. It is a very ornate pattern with an open flower on the terminal, another part way down the stem with a small ornamentation at the base of the stem. The design is deep and heavy.
