Description

The Sugar Bowl features the interesting horse symbol for the hotel and is Silver Soldered 4 oz. The tongs say Young's Hotel and have a beautiful pattern on 'the claws'. I'm not sure of the exact age of the pieces, but the Young's Hotel in Boston operated from 1860 to 1927. And according to Wikipedia, guests at the hotel included Mark Twain, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, William Lloyd Garrison, Charles Sumner, Rutherford B. Hayes, and numerous others.
