Marguerite by Gorham

Marguerite was introduced by Gorham in 1901 and designed by William Codman It was designed by William C. Codman who designed many of Gorham's  patterns including FlorentineEtruscanFleuryTuileriesAlbemarle,  New Queens, and Imperial Chrysanthemum

Like Codman's other patterns for Gorham, Marguerite is fancy and detailed with a floral design that winds its way up the stem. The terminal is left blank for monogramming with a single blossom on the tip.
