Buttercup Sterling Silver Flatware Manufactured Brand New by Gorham is a very popular sterling pattern. It was first manufactured in the year 1899. It was a strong seller from the beginning and has remained as one of the top 10 best selling sterling silver patterns ever since.
Buttercup sterling silver by Gorham is beautifully crafted and each piece is adorned with 14 delicate and dainty buttercup flowers. The design is exquiste and appeals to those who love flowers and nature. It also has a more feminine appeal. The shape of the pattern is also very pleasant, balanced and comfortable to hold in your hand which makes for a very enjoyable dining experience.
Buttercup was designed by William C. Codman who was perhaps the greatest designer that ever worked for Gorham. The pattern is still active and will undoubtly be produced brand new for many years more or decades to come.
