Mary Chilton by Towle

Towle's Mary Chilton pattern was introduced in 1912.The pattern's namesake was one of only 11 female children who survived the crossing of the Mayflower. Lore has it she was the first to put foot on the "New World" - she was so excited she jumped out of the boat.

Ice Cream Things

Ice Cream, being a very popular Victorian desert deserved all the appropriate utensils. One has the Ice Cream Fork, Ice Cream Spoon, Ruffled Sherbet Spoon, Sherbet Spoon, and Sherbet Fork,

Ice Cream Forks were the first "sporks" having a bowl shape like a spoon with short tines attached to the end.
