Description: This is a matched set of 8 fruit / grapefruit / citrus spoons in the Florentine pattern by John R. Wendt & Company. The pattern was introduced in 1870. Without catalog, I can't properly identify nature of spoon. Length: 6-1/8" Combined silver weight in grams: 130 Monogram, engravings, or inscriptions: script "Wood" on handle top cartouche Hallmarks: "Sterling ~ Patent" Condition: Excellent giftable condition. Mentionable issue: One spoon has noticeable pings and bend to bowl (see photos #18 & #19 photos). Another spoon has two "pings" in bowl (see last two photos). Engraved name "Wood" appears on all. Surface patina commiserate with age and use. No other mentionable pings, dings, dents, bashes, flat spots, carbon spots, gauges, unusual scratches, or other blemishes. Recent thorough hand polish.Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. Please ask me for specific quote if you feel shipping cost is too high. On certain large / heavy packages, I see EBAY's calculator grossly overcalculates actual shipping costs. Please note I usually provide at least 2, if not usually 4, shipping options. Please check to validate which option is best for you. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
