A vintage sterling silver figural jigger by Gorham, designed in the form of a stoplight and accented with enamel in red, yellow, and green.
The cylindrical body is marked with three enamel “lights,” corresponding to graduated measures: “go” (1 oz), “caution” (2.5 oz), and “stop” (3.5 oz). This combination of visual humor and functional design reflects mid-century American barware at its most inventive, where novelty and utility were closely linked.
The enamel retains strong color contrast against the polished silver ground, while the clear division of measurements makes the piece both practical and immediately legible in use.
Hallmarked on the base for Gorham, one of the leading American silver manufacturers, the jigger is a well-executed example of the firm’s smaller-scale novelty production.
A distinctive and highly displayable piece, equally suited to use or as part of a focused barware or silver collection.
