Vintage Holmes & Edwards Inlaid Silverplate Teaspoons Set of 8

This is a set of 8 vintage Holmes & Edwards Inlaid IS silverplate teaspoons, each measuring about 6 inches long. The handles have a shaped floral-style end detail, and the backs are marked “Holmes & Edwards Inlaid IS.”

These are useful as replacement flatware, table styling pieces, craft supplies, or vintage kitchen display. They are not polished to a mirror finish and do show age, but they still have that old silverplate charm—shiny, a little dramatic, and definitely not pretending to be new.

Collector’s Notes

Holmes & Edwards is a known American silverplate flatware name, and the “Inlaid” marking refers to the company’s process of adding extra silver at high-wear points before plating.

That makes these a nice small find for collectors of vintage tableware, replacement flatware hunters, or anyone building a mixed silverware drawer with a bit of old-house personality.
