1847 Rogers Bros Daffodil Soup Spoon Lot of 2 Silverplate 1950

This 1847 Rogers Bros Daffodil soup spoon lot includes two matching 7 inch silverplate oval soup, place, or gumbo spoons from the pattern introduced in 1950.

Both spoons are solid and intact with readable marks and no dishwasher bites, while the surfaces show tarnish, scratches, and discoloration from use and age.

The raised Daffodil floral handles give this pair a clear mid century table setting look and make them useful as replacement pieces for an existing Daffodil flatware set.

Collector's Notes

The Daffodil pattern was introduced in 1950, when floral silverplate patterns were made for both everyday tables and more formal place settings.

This pair suits someone filling gaps in an 1847 Rogers Bros Daffodil service or building a mixed mid century silverplate table setting.

Both 7 inch spoons carry the matching Daffodil design and readable maker markings, which gives a replacement buyer several details to compare against pieces already in a set.

A matched pair like this keeps the useful part of old flatware in service while still showing the pattern that made it recognizable.
