This is a pair of sterling silver teaspoons by Stieff in their Rose pattern introduced in 1892. The teaspoons measure 6" and are in excellent condition with no monogram. They are marked "Sterling Stieff.d" together with an "H". From "TheSteiffCompany.com" - "The H represented the HEAVY weight silver. The sale of heavy pieces really came to a trickle in the depression. The October 1941 price guide shows Trade weight and medium weight spoons still available." I would assume from this that these teaspoons date to around 1920.
