Description
Set of six diminutive Gorham sterling silver demitasse spoons featuring an attractive floral motif with twisted stems and engraved terminals, each bearing the Gorham hallmark along with the stamp 15 and STERLING.

The set is housed in its original cloth roll and presents as a charming grouping of American sterling silver tableware. The combined total weight for all six spoons is approximately 47.03 grams, equivalent to roughly 30 pennyweight or about 1.51 troy ounces of sterling silver.

A desirable and collectible set of petite Gorham sterling demitasse spoons that would display beautifully and appeal to collectors of fine American silver.
