One lump or two?

This is a very whimsical English sterling silver wheelbarrow used here for serving sugar cubes. This is a wonderful piece to use when enjoying tea in the garden with a friend. The sterling silver sugar tongs were made for Tiffany & Co and feature a wishbone motif with lucky four leaf clovers at the ends. Sugar tongs like these would have made a treasured wedding or house warming gift as they symbolize good luck and wishes coming true.

The sterling silver wheelbarrow was made by William Hutton & Sons Ltd, Birmingham England circa 1908 as a sweetmeat basket.

Tiffany & Co “Japanese” oyster forks

Oysters from Hog Island Oyster Company are a real treat when eaten with Tiffany and Co “Japanese” oyster forks circa 1871.  These oyster forks measure 5 1/8 inches long. The one widened tine was used to separate the oyster from the shell. The photos show the exquisite attention to detail of this pattern, front and back, as well as traces of the original vermeil finish.
