    Description

    Awaiting your purchase is a superb and rare pair of unmarked coin silver sugar tongs from the
    American Colonial
    period or perhaps a little later,
    1760–90
    . The long arms and ogee shaped elbow suggest a possible
    Philadelphia
    origin. The arms are hand decorated with line borders and wriggle work scalloping, and there is an oval cartouche to the elbow engraved with script initials "NHR". This elegant and attractive item remains in
    very good to excellent antique condition
    with age-appropriate wear. A superb collector's piece in wonderful condition!
