Coronoda by Watson

Coronoda by Watson, what a lovely pattern. And once again I do not have a date. I did find reference that it was discontinued in 1940. The tip of the terminal is decorated with what looks like a feather motif, with the terminal itself being surrounded by curled leaves. This area is suitable for engraving. Two lines edge the stem to the shoulder where a smaller feather motif mirrors the one on the tip.

Canterbury by Towle

Towle introduced Canterbury in 1893.  The design at first looks simple, but the more you look at it, the more small elegant it is with small details. The beaded edge is interrupted at the base of the terminal with a simple fern design and as the eye follows the line up to the tip of the terminal is looks like a young fern frond ready to unfurl, with a third frond at the very tip. The curling motif is repeated on the the shoulders of the pieces. It is a lovely pattern.

(I have no idea if this is a fern in the design it just struck me that way in trying to describe it.)

Simple Tiffany Patterns

Tiffany has several patterns that are fairly simple. In fact some may call them plain. They were introduced over a rather broad range of time, so it was not as if the House of Tiffany went through some "simple" phase. Here are some examples:

Windham (1923) (Bouillon Soup Spoon) (5 1/2 inches) (Arthur LeRoy Barney)


Linenfold (1956)  (Cake Server) (11 inches) 



Hampton (1934) (Fish Knife) (8 1/8 inches) Charles B. Blake



Hamilton aka Gramercy (1938) (Large Asparagus Serving Fork) (9 5/8 inches) 



Flemish (1911) (Ice Tea Spoon) (7 1/2 inches) 

Colonial by Tiffany

Another pattern by Tiffany, Paulding Farnham designed Colonial for them in 1895. He is also known for his later patterns of  Marquise, Renaissance, and St. James  he also designed for Tiffany. As well as Richilieu, that he designed in 1892. The design of Colonial is fairly simple with a leaf motif at the end of the terminal and the terminal and stem being edged by a triple line which curls outward at the base of the stem.

Century by Tiffany

Arthur Leroy Barney designed Century for Tiffany in 1937. The  pattern is Art Deco in its straight lines and the  treatment on the terminal. Barney also designed Castilian for Tiffany, but he is most well known for his design of Tiffany's Indian pattern

Cameo by International

There is a newer pattern named "Cameo" by Reed and Barton that was introduced in 1959. However, I could not find out much about it. This is Cameo by international that was introduced in 1939. The design is a simple motif of flowers and leaves in the middle of the piece and some decoration at the bottom of the stem. It is not a fussy design, not is it heavy.

Earle by Frank Smith

An older pattern by Frank Smith, Earle was introduced in 1890. It is a busy pattern with an open shield on the terminal suitable for monograms. An acanthus leaf attached to the bottom of the shield. The stem is neatly wrapped in a design that resembles ribbon.
