AVAILABLE for SHIPPING or LOCAL PICKUP > Offered as a three piece grouping of vintage American weighted sterling silver hollowware, including a tall flared vase, miniature urn or toothpick holder and footed cordial. Each presents a traditional silversmith form with broad molded bases, tapered bodies and naturally developed surface patina. The tallest vase stands 6" tall and weighs approximately 5 ounces overall. Its slender trumpet form rises from a broad stepped circular base into a flared, gently scalloped rim, with a narrow rope-twist band encircling the upper body. The underside is marked STERLING REINFORCED WITH CEMENT and bears hand-scratched inventory numbers. The miniature toothpick holder urn stands approximately 2?" tall and weighs 2 ounces overall. The compact classical form features a rolled rim, rounded lower body, short pedestal and circular base bordered with fine rope decoration. The underside bears a shield-form N.S. CO. hallmark above STERLING WEIGHTED 1650. The N.S. Co. mark is associated with National Silver Company of New York, a producer of sterling and silver-plated hollowware and flatware. The footed cordial stands approximately 3?" tall and weighs 1 ounce overall. It features a flared drinking bowl, slender stem and broad molded foot, with the underside marked N.S. CO. STERLING WEIGHTED. Together, the varied forms create an appealing small collection for a silver cabinet, formal table, vanity or floral display. The darkened surfaces retain the richly mottled patina developed over years, while the raised ornament and traditional silhouettes remain clearly defined. CONDITION REPORT > Expect tarnish, oxidation, surface wear, small dents, irregularities and other elements relative to age, materials and use. The stated weights represent the complete weighted objects, including their reinforced interiors.
