This 82-piece Gorham sterling silver service offers a wide selection of table and serving pieces in the Stardust pattern, introduced in 1957. Fine starbursts are scattered along the tapered handles, leaving broad areas of smooth silver between the motifs. The spare ornament and clean proportions give the set its distinctly Mid-Century Modern appeal. The table flatware includes fifteen knives and one butter spreader, twenty-eight forks, and twenty-seven spoons. Dinner and salad forks are represented, along with larger oval-bowled spoons and teaspoons. Eleven additional utensils extend the service through salad, carving, and dessert: a ladle, a large salad-serving fork and spoon, a cold-meat serving fork, a sugar spoon, two small serving forks, two pastry/cake servers, and a carving knife and fork. The broad pierced server has cutout stars and long, curved openings that echo the handle decoration; the second server has a triangular stainless steel blade. The pieces bear "Gorham Sterling" and "Stardust" marks. The knives have sterling silver handles and stainless steel blades, with the handle construction identified by "Gorham Sterling Handle" marks. Both carving pieces have guards, and the knife retains its red Gorham sheath. The service comes with a quilted, zippered storage case with fitted dividers and a Gorham tarnish-resistant cloth. The case measures approximately 21" x 15" x 2.75" tall. The utensils have a combined gross weight of 4,072 grams, including the stainless steel blades and other non-silver components.
