Rogers Melrose Petite Silverplate Teaspoons, Pattern Introduced 1898","description":"\u003cp\u003eSet of eight petite silverplate spoons by Wm. Rogers in the ornate Melrose pattern, introduced in 1898. While the exact date of this pattern being discontinued is not known, it is believed to be early 20th century, making these antique. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally designed as fruit spoons, their beautifully scaled proportions make them wonderfully versatile for the modern table. The Melrose pattern features elaborate scrolling foliate decoration, shell-like flourishes, and a blank central cartouche. Each spoon bowl is finished with delicate floral motifs and a subtly pointed tip. The floral decoration extending into the bowl is what makes this set especially lovely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile historically intended for fruit, today they're perfect for demitasse or after-dinner coffee, yogurt, ice cream, parfaits, and desserts, or simply as an especially pretty petite spoon at each place setting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll eight are unmonogrammed and have been freshly polished, presenting a wonderfully cohesive set with plenty of vintage character and shine. Marked Wm. Rogers with the eagle-and-star trademark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good antique condition with age-appropriate surface wear, fine scratching, and patina consistent with use. No pitting or bleeding. Freshly polished and presents beautifully. No monograms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hosted by Kirsten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45181156098256,"sku":"#00166","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/1359\/0736\/files\/IMG_0298.jpg?v=1790103823","url":"https:\/\/hostedbykirsten.com\/products\/set-of-8-wm-rogers-melrose-petite-silverplate-teaspoons-pattern-introduced-1898","provider":"Hosted by Kirsten","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
