What are these 2 spoons used for?

>marked W R Keystone<

I believe "W.R. Keystone" is a silverplate line by Oneida Silver. It may have come to Oneida when it took over the Wm. A. Rogers.

That's true, Susan, although it was in use for quite a while before the acquisition in 1929. A catalogue reprint in Davis and Deibel refers to the W R "keystone" mark as "Medium Grade Flat Ware."

 

I must get Davis and Deibel, I must get Davis and Deibel, I must get Davis and Deibel.....

Cheryl notes the "medium grade plate" also in the following query on 925-1000 - the last reply.

First chance to get back here - Halloween was my Mom's 90th birthday, and had
