This set of English Sheffield silverplate tongs I picked up at the flea market here in New York. I love the shell pattern on the handle and the graceful curving of the tongs. What an elegant way to serve Belgian waffles or French toast at a champagne brunch. And for dinner, they’re the perfect utensil for miniature Yorkshire puddings. A serving piece like this would make any meal feel special.
