AH flatware

[BrianK]

Not all AH silverware prices are "up" either. A AH champagne bucket has sat unsold on a dealer's website for years at $5500, while a identical one sold at a recent auction for only $3000. Most people seem to want a piece or two of the most common knives, forks and spoons, which has driven those prices up.

Napkins do seem slow, I have one on the E-Stand for $575.

If someone needs to match up a AH Salt and Pepper set here is a single AH salt shaker nice ... I think the Informal serving piece is rather rare as I have never seen another one ..

[Eric Von Rader]

wow nice!!!!

[CPB]

That is a really nice.

Always cool seeing informal serving pieces...not many of those around.

[Br. James]

Thanks, Brent -- the Informal Serving Piece is indeed rare; I've never seen another like it and have no idea what it was created to serve?!

I believe that it is an asparagus server.

Best regards,

Yes ..A Informal pattern AH asparagus

Yes, I agree a Informal pattern AH asparagus server ,, Of my over 30 plus years dealing with AH items I have never come across another in the informal AH pattern .. Might be 1 of only just a few made ? Brent

[Br. James]

Thanks to Bill for adding his silverware experience here! I have never owned an asparagus server -- and I have collected period Stieff sterling for many years. Brent's response is perhaps more true than even he knows: since the AH Informal Service was apparently far more limited in both its production and its location(s), given that only about one-third of the AH monogrammed services were produced in the Informal Pattern as compared with the much larger production of the Formal Pattern, an esoteric utensil such as an asparagus server may well only have been ordered and created by Bruckmann once or perhaps twice?! This piece may be even rarer than any of us now know!
