6 SILVER TEASPOONS TO PONDER - A LITTLE!

Hi! Oh, the goodies I STILL manage to find!!! Mom had these S KIRK & SON STERLING H TEASPOONS tucked in a silk or satin pouch. I did some Googling and quickly found the pattern (from Replacements.com) is Repoussé, and that they are probably dated around 1932 or newer, from what I read. The size is 5 7/8" that I have. Replacements has one marked down to 45.99, from 59.99. What I don't understand is what the H on the spoons stands for.......can anyone offer any input??? (And sorry, but no, I didn't polish them!! Still hate to polish!!!)
As ALWAYS, Thank you SO MUCH for your expertise and help!!!!!

I believe the "H" indicates heavy weight - better for you, since it's heavier sterling!

 

Items marked S. Kirk & Son Inc. are from 1924-1932, according to
the Stieff (of Stieff-Kirk) website:

Thank you @SBSVC, that would explain the "H"!! And the link to your article I think is definitely better than the one I had, thanks for that too!!! Not sure what I'll do with them at this point, but at least am finding and finding out about these things!!!!

 

My experience of life has taught me that you can never have too many teaspoons. These are lovely.

 

Thank you, Bronwen!! If nothing else, I'll try to pass on to a niece or great-niece!!!!

 

Wonder how many of us have no children to leave things for & are at ages when we need to think about this. I have no nieces/nephews either. There's a general discussion topic: if most of your assets are stuff, & you have no close relative to leave the choicest items or the family heirlooms to, what plans have you made for your estate?

 

I'll let the executor make the decision - trash or charity...................I have already donated most things with an historical value to museums and historical societies, and since there is no one left to inherit anything (valuable or not), I suppose that it will all wind up in the skip..........................hellofa' way to end a nearly twenty century presence in Europe and a five century presence in the US, huh?

 

Of my 15 cousins, only 6 have children who lived to have children of their own. My only 2 cousins on one side are among the childless. I always say I am without issue but not without issues.
