DetailsWell, if you’ve looked over my shop, you know I’m crazy about antique silver tongs. The Germans and Italians made beautiful sterling pieces a century ago, and these are a diminutive sweet example.
I use pieces like this one for serving little things: sweet pickles, sugar cubes, petit fours, sushi, other appetizers, that sort of thing...And when I use pieces like this, it's always to the delight of my guests who have usually never seen anything like them.
I also love to give them away. These sweet servers make great wedding gifts or special pieces for any silver lover, I'm fond of giving pieces like these to friends who are moving to a new home q...a lovely server like this one on cheese boards or hors d'oeuvre platters as welcome home gifts or hostess gifts.
The server: 4 3/4” x 1.75”
Material: 800 silver (the European standard for sterling)
Markings: 800
Weight: 23 grams
This server is 800 silver, not silver plate. A word of caution...some sellers advertise silver when they are selling silver plate. Be sure that you can see the mark.
Since it's solid 800 silver, you don't have to worry about the finish wearing off with use. A simple polish removes any accumulating tarnish. (I prefer Hagerty Silversmith's wash with a tarnish preventative. Avoid using silver dips; they'll remove the lovely patina that gathers in the crevices to enhance the detail of these pieces.)
No monogram.
Commensurate with age, the condition is excellent.
