Silver plated tomato servers

$35.00

The pieces pictured are a trio of antique and vintage silver-plated tomato servers and bonbon spoons featuring intricate, pierced openwork cutouts. [1]

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, elaborate flatware services included hyper-specialized pieces for nearly every dish. The decorative perforations in these wide spoons were functional: they allowed excess juice, oil, or syrup to drain away when lifting slices of juicy sliced tomatoes, cranberries, berries, or bonbons, keeping table cloths and serving platters dry. $35 for all 3
