Every once in a while you run across some pieces that get classified in very general terms such as "forks", here are some elegant serving pieces classified as "Servers".
"Elephant Ear" Server (in Olympian pattern by Tiffany) (10 3/4 inches)
Sterling Silver Shovel (in Lady pattern by Gorham) (10 inches)
A simple pattern, but elegant in its simplicity. Morning Glory was introduced by Alvin in 1909. The pattern has an open Morning Glory blossom on the terminal and another at the top of the stem with an area between suitable for engraving. Thin lines run down the stem to a small leaf and a third very small blossom at the bottom of the stem just before the shoulder. The design is detailed and deep.
Not a particularly old pattern, Milburn Rose was introduced by Westmorland in 1940. The only decoration is the flat rectangular terminal that sports a rose motif surrounded by leaf embellishments.
