Lot 142: A Collection of German 800 Grade Silver Spoons and a Cigarette Case

A collection of continental silver items comprising several spoons and a rectangular cigarette case. The spoons feature a uniform foliate and scrolled border design to the handle terminals.

The cigarette case is of rounded rectangular form with a hinged opening. The exterior lid is decorated with an engraved geometric monogram. An adhesive label on the front of the case reads 800 SILVER.
