This silver cup is one of my very favorite pieces.
It is made by James Tufts in Boston, probably around the turn of the century - he was out of business by 1915.
It is inscribed with the name Jimmie.
The women on the handle has incredible detail.
I keep my collection of sugar spoons in the cup.
The art nouveau styles are my favorite.
Some of these are monogrammed as well.

Lovely collection of sugar spoons! I have several that came from family members, but I never thought about a real collection. I love the cup. My brother's name is Jimmie.

ReplyDeletethere is something suspicious going on with silver in this city. it disappears between the time it is donated and then never shows up in the stores. except for platters which are ridiculously cheap.
ReplyDeleteIts no coincidence that Swooon rhymes with spoon ~ your are fabulous. Thanks & Happy SS!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful silver pieces. Have a great day.
