Unlike many of the other examples which one may find on this world-wide web, this is original, not "made up" out of a teaspoon.

length 7 inches, weight an impressive 1.62 Troy ounces, marked as shown in fifth enlargement.

In many ways, this is an exemplary item, as it has had scant use, little pattern wear and is pleasantly heavy in the hand. Sadly, as may be seen in our second photo, there has been an erasure from the reverse. However, the spoon is still guaranteed to hold your soup or dessert!

length 6 1/2 inches, weight 1.85 Troy ounces, excellent condition, no monogram, craftsman Charles Brown.

A nearly identical though slightly smaller example is pictured in Chickering, p. 157; plate 160.

These engraved patterns were time consuming and expensive to manufacture, and now appear to be scarce. Have you been consuming your oysters and shrimps with (gasp!!) stainless utensils? Remedy that by sending us an order, via email.

In 1894, Nellie Sontag would have been a household name. With her brother Sir Mohawk, she was half of the famed trotter team which held the fastest time for their age class. The horses were immortalized in a print by Currier & Ives of John Cameron's painting, which we show here in our fourth enlargement.

For the collector of Jensen jewelry, an opportunity to acquire a rare, stone set example, in early production, circa 1925. This particular brooch does not often appear on the market.

length 10 1/4 inches, weight 3.2 Troy ounces, monogrammed as shown, excellent original condition. A similar ladle with applied medallion in rounded section of the handle sold at South Bay (4/18/2017; lot 195), which leads us to believe that this item was both manufactured and retailed by Newell Harding, thought Wendt is certainly a possibility.

The gilt, ruffled bowl is a tour-de-force of Victorian era engraving. Please see our third enlargement for a better view.

NY circa 1840, diameter 8 1/2 inches, weight 13 Troy ounces, some light surface wear but fine overall condition, marked as shown in fourth enlargement.

The three elaborately cast and chased feet, with highly carved flowers and scrolls, elevate this object into the realm of far above average.

Perhaps you've got a splendid kettle on stand but no burner, or perhaps you have a chafing dish but no heat source, or maybe you just need a way to warm your hands in Winter, but regardless of your wants here is the solution.

Height 1 1/2; diameter 3 inches, no monogram, good condition. I hesitate to even mention that the gross weight is 5.5 Troy ounces because there seems to be some sort of wicking compound underneath the screen which allows for even and gradual burning. We tried this...

unmarked but presumably Gorham, diameter 1 7/8; height 1 3/4 inches, some slight wear but fine overall condition, weight 1.34 Troy ounces, engraved "Col R H Jackson, USA"

With an intricately detailed applied gilt bug, this piece exemplifies the very best of George Shiebler's offbeat and extraordinarily creative designs. In thirty-five some odd years of scouring the country and city-sides, I have never owned another example of this particular brooch.

length 7 1/2 inches, weight 1.25 oz. Troy, monogrammed as shown in second enlargement, excellent condition. Often, Gorham's engraved decoration is unsuited to the pattern's theme, but here a classically engraved blade with wrigglework border goes well, stylistically, with the Greek bust woman's portrait.
