A fabulous sterling basket with a hammered texture and a carved simulated rope ebony handle. Unfortunately it is unascribed, only marked with Sterling and 925. It is very much in the style of Georg Jensen which leads me to believe that it was made by La Paglia. La Paglia was greatly influenced by the Danish silversmiths designs and I have had a number of hand-crafted items attributed to La Paglia with just the Sterling mark. Excellent condition. Dimensions: 10.5" x 6" x 9.25" to top of handl... Click for details

An iconic figure, Washington's immediately recognizable bust, dating from his presidential years, is set atop the handle, with a banner below this that reads "Washington." Other o...

Ariel is a scarce 19th pattern that bears the name of an airy spirit in Shakespeare's "The Tempest." The maker, Wendell Manufacturing Company of Chicago, chose to portray the figure as cherubic. Androgynous, he or she is sitting cross-legged, top and center of a highly embellished design. 8 1/4" long, this weighs a substantial 2.1 T. oz.
