What does the “GS STA” mark mean?

The Gorham Stardust Sterling pattern, introduced in 1957 and produced through 1991, reflects the sleek optimism of mid-century American design. The handle features a gently tapered shape with smooth, polished surfaces, accented by a small star-burst style motif near the tip—subtle, modern, and true to the “Stardust” name. This decorative flourish is understated, giving the pattern a clean, contemporary look while still offering a touch of visual interest. Crafted in solid sterling silver, Stardust is lightweight, comfortable to hold, and well balanced. Its streamlined form and modest decoration allow it to blend easily with both vintage and modern table settings. Collectors appreciate Stardust for its classic mid-century charm and Gorham’s consistent quality during this era.
