Years ago,I inherited about 100 various pieces of sterling(candy dishes,candlesticks,etc,but I was curios about the full tea service.The base of each piece is octagonal and the beveled-shape continues to the top of each piece.The 'Grecian'appearing handles have joints of ivory or pearl.The latest(Winter 2008) Gumps catalogue has a squatter but similar looking piece on it's cover.I believe these family heirlooms came from either Austria or England,or perhaps Gorham in NY,because that is where everything they bought came from.Each piece is very angular,not bowl-like;I will send pictures if necessary,but I'm hoping the description will work.These are the few pieces that are not monogrammed that I have.Thank you.
