RARE Vintage Miniature Kirk Stieff Silverplate Lidded Bowl w/ Decorative Casting

Description: This is a very interesting and RARE piece by Kirk Stieff. As I could only find one of its kind, I am at a loss for its original purpose. The casting for the lid handle is quite intriguing, similar to a Viking Norse rune. It will no doubt be a nice little conversation piece for a collector’s showcase or an exquisite salt cellar for a romantic dinner. Kirk Stieff History at a Glance: What would eventually be known as The Stieff Company was incorporated on December 2, 1892, under the name “The Florence Sterling Silver Company” and had a combined factory and showroom at 110 West Fayette Street in Baltimore. The FLORENCE name was a temporary “holding name” until the company could be reorganized and re-opened as The Sterling Silver Manufacturing Company. Mr. Stieff was not a silversmith himself, but an entrepreneur who dealt in silver, cutlery and fine housewares like clocks and cut glass. His store, Charles C. Stieff & Co, located at 17 N. Liberty Street in downtown Baltimore displayed his retail and wholesale wares. Jumping forward, in the fall of ’79 Stieff would buy cross town rival S. Kirk & Son and then consolidated both operations into the Stieff buildings on Wyman Park Drive and creating THE KIRK STIEFF COMPANY. (http://thestieffcompany.com/) The "Argent" (diamond mark) dates this bowl to 1984 or later.
