Comments: A rare example of one of Tiffany & Co'.s most sought after patterns. The tomato vine pattern is especially suitable for this large soup ladle with the vine plants growing around the stem of the handle. The bowl of this example is the superior fluted variant. The reverse side of the stem is engraved with French style initials in a manner designed to simulate the vine tendrils.. fabulous condition with clear period marks for Tiffany.

Tiffany's Vine Pattern was produced in large number of variants depicting flowers, fruit and vegetables. It was introduced circa 1872 and this example will date from around this period. A similar example, with plain bowl, is shown in "Tiffany Silver Flatware" on page 153.
