Unusual TIFFANY & CO Sterling Silver Serving Piece?

I am hoping that someone can help me to identify a rather unusual piece of Tiffany sterling silver. The pattern is Chrysanthemum but I have no idea what this would be used for. Any help would be appreciated and thank you in advance.  tiffany1b.jpgtiffany1a.jpgtiffany1c.jpg

That was a great link and I appreciate your sending it. Thanks a bunch. I think I can settle in on the Ice Cream server or the Aspic server and now I'll be in search of the matching piece.

From asparagus to green beans to aspic or even sardines...how dare we serve these without the proper utensils.   🙂

 

The eBay community never fails to amaze me when everyone takes the time to respond to a message. A big THANK YOU to all.

I've seen these listed as ice cream/aspic servers occasionally, but I came across these forum posts and thought they might shed some light as to relative size and functional variants (like having a lip to keep that gross meat jelly on the blade as it's being served.)
