A posy vase is the usual name, I think.
Are they sterling marked. I especially like the lily pad pin dish.
Yes all are Sterling Gorham silver and others from around here North shore of Ma. 1 has a mark of a bee? I can not find this trademark anywhere any ideas?
Adelphi of New York and Christofle of Paris have used bee as a mark.
Is the lily pad dish by Gorham?
Which one is a lily pad, i am not a collector.
The picture at top left. It has a very nice art nouveau look about it.
That has the bee only, i have a shot of the bee where can i put it here?
Gorham is the 3" by 5" dish. beauty!! nice one
the bee one is the other small dish 5" Yes it is from Adelphi of New York the same bee i see now
