Rare 1878 Tiffany & Co Greek mythology totem custom sterling silver spoon original box set of 6

Rare 1878 Tiffany & Co Olympian series Greek mythology totem Goethe font custom solid thick sterling silver spoon complete original box 6 pieces set The design of this set of sterling silver spoons was a glorious work in 1878 by Edward C. Moore, the greatest chief silver designer in Tiffany's history. Edward C. Moore served as the jewelry design director and head of the silver studio of Tiffany & Co. from 1851 to 1891. Under Moore's guidance, Tiffany's artists researched jewelry and objects from around the world and from multiple historical periods. He won Tiffany the attention and praise of his European contemporaries. His designs won Tiffany its first Silver at the 1867 Paris International Exposition, marking the first time an American silver company had received such an honor from a foreign jury. In 1878, he led Tiffany to become the only American silver company to win the gold medal at the Paris Exposition. Edward C. Moore can be said to be one of the key figures in Tiffany's becoming the world's top silver manufacturer. This set of sterling silver spoons is the Olympic pattern launched by Tiffany in 1878. This design was also the key design that led Tiffany to win the international gold medal in 1878. It is the ceiling of the design in the Tiffany series of tableware, and its design is exquisite and complex. Each of Olympian's pieces is designed to illustrate a famous story from classical mythology, with the subject matter varying depending on the size of the handles on the different pieces. Olympian design has a total of 17 different patterns, each pattern has its own meaning. The Tiffany Olympian series is truly a unprecedented design. Just imagine, it is very difficult to design an exquisite and complex tableware style. He designed 17 different patterns for a set of tableware. No wonder he was able to severely defeat the silver market, which was mainly dominated by Europe at that time. The design totem of this set of spoons is the hunting goddess Artemis, who is the goddess of purity in ancient Greek mythology. Artemis is imaged holding a Silver bow and arrow, her sacred tree is cypress, and the doe is her sacred animal. He is one of the twelve gods of Olympus. She is the daughter of Zeus, the king of gods, and Leto, the goddess, and the twin sister of Apollo, the god of the sun. She is also considered the patron goddess of the moon. The back of the spoon is signed C Tiffany & Co Sterling PAT 1878. The C should represent the engraver's code or signature. The word Tiffany is also on the inside of the box. #This model should have been custom-made at the time. There is a Goethe signature on the back of the orderer. After all, it is too complicated and requires a lot of handwork. This set of tableware was also the top-level sterling silver tableware at the time, so there are not many of them. We asked an American antique silver dealer to help us find it, so we were able to find it. It is absolutely rare in Taiwan, and this time we found a complete box, which is even more rare. The price of Tiffany is gradually rising. This is the top-level tableware among Tiffany. A complete box is hard to come by. If you miss it, it will be difficult to find it again. It is very worth collecting. Brand: Tiffany & Co Year: 1878 Designer: Edward C.
