EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning silver service set from the U.S.S. Idaho, captured in a photograph by Harris & Ewing in the 1910s, showcases the intricate decorative details of the naval warship's punchbowl, ladle, and plate. The punchbowl, manufactured by Gorham, holds an impressive 75 pints and is adorned with the motto of the state of Idaho, "Esto Perpetua," which translates to "may she endure forever." The eagle and dolphin designs on the punchbowl and ladle symbolize power and strength, reflecting the might of the United States Navy. The plateau, measuring 18 1/4 inches in length, provides a stable base for the impressive punch set. The ladle, standing at a height of 19 3/8 inches, is designed with a long handle to allow for easy pouring. This silver service set was likely used for formal occasions on board the U.S.S. Idaho, adding an element of elegance and sophistication to naval life during the early 20th century. The photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich history of American naval warfare and the attention to detail that went into outfitting these vessels with the finest tableware.
