| Dazzling bright-cut engraved 13 PIECE ICE CREAM SET marked with Peter Krider's 1865- 1875 mark,retailed by Bailey & Co., marked sterling. Peter Krider was one of Philadelphia's great silversmiths; Bailey a well known retailer in Philadelphia. The set has one slice and 12 ice cream spoons with sparkling bright-cut decor on a combination matte and polished background, with vermeil accents on each side of the heart in the bowls . Bright-cut engraving entails removing the metal with bevelled cutting tools, thus giving a jewel-like sparkle to the surface.The slice is 10 1/2" long, 2 7/8" wide at the widest point; spoons are 5 3/4" long. A single letter monogram is also formed with a shiny bright- cut design. A lost art! | ||
