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

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!
$45.00
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.
$75.00
Is this the cheapest example on the entire Internet? No, it is not!! There's a sad, tired looking one on ebay which you can pick up for a bit less, but doesn't your collection deserve the best??
$79.00
Compare on ebay @139.00!! Price per each; multiples available.

Have a look at the finely engraved matte-finished bowl up close and personal in our second enlargement to see why Faber's work is sought after by so many collectors!

All for one low, low price. What a deal!!
This is a grand tea tray, fully two feet (exclusive of handles) by sixteen inches. I was tempted to include a foot, a baby or a small dog for scale, but judged the former to be in poor taste and could not furnish either of the latter. Buy it now, and watch the value increase as world order ceases to function!

Nine out of ten alleged Lily lettuce forks that come on the market are recast, so it's a pleasure to see an old, original example.
$375.00
Ball Black & Company's items made in this higher silver standard tend to be heavy and of fine quality. They may have been intended for export to the French market, where .950 was de rigueur.
An exemplary item for the collector of cast bonbonnieres.
$220.00
Though the three letter script monogram may not be traditional for Fairfax, these are nearly impossible to find.
Though his work is ardently sought by collectors, Porter's output was not always of consistent quality. His soldering was occasionally sloppy, and his hammer marks were at times random. Here, the seams are nearly invisible, and the art peen hammering (please see third enlargement) is laid out masterfully along the vertical axis...
$450.00
Also known as a mint julep cup, this form is not common among early 20th century hand wrought items made here in the U.S.
$55.00
A perfect "entry level" item for someone who is considering a collection of hand wrought silver.
$45.00
These would make a splendid hostess gift, especially if your hostess happens to be of Scandinavian descent. Price is for the six.
