Would Appreciate Help Identifying These Marks

Postby pappas1322 » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:28 am

These spoons have passed through the family recently and I am only assuming (from my research) that I'm posting in the correct section (Sheffield). However I have been way off on all my items. I am completely green when it comes to silverware. I am finding all the history behind these pieces fascinating. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,

These spoons are American. They are a product of the Watson Company.

In case you didn't know, it's a sipper (lemonade spoon, straw spoon) - I used to collect them, the only ones I still have are a set of six with similar sweet heart-shaped bowls.....
