Oh haha. Didn’t notice it was two. :)
Ooh thanks! Cool that it’s an old family business. I can’t read NYT articles without a subscription unfortunately. I did find this site which...
Certainly could be. It’s oddly not marked for silver. You’d think it would be if it were a commercial piece, particularly since it’s well marked...
Purchased this as part of a lot of mostly miniature portraits at auction. I suppose technically it’s a portrait too. It is signed back and front...
Thanks. I couldn’t resist it. Much more than I’d typically pay for a silver pendant by an unknown to me maker but the cool factor is irresistible.
Well that’s interesting. Thanks!
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Paid up $$ for this guy on one of the alternate online marketplaces. More than I usually would. I think I’ll still do well...
I’ll definitely leave the frame alone. While I like it, it’ll be moving on down the line eventually. I’ll keep it stored out of the sun until...
Here’s where I bumped into it. I want to say it was in F&F too. One of the & Co. pieces is listed on eBay....

Got this spoon in a lot at auction. From a very high end silver collectors estate. It’s pretty rough but I’d like to ID it still. The maker I can...
I’ve been wanting a sterling measuring spoon (Tbs) for a while now. Hard to find and expensive when I do see one. Maybe I’ll have to buy one of...
It belonged to the du Pont family. I wish the signature gave a bit more to go on.
great presentation IMO. [ATTACH]
So around 8”x10” exposed under glass.
I would assume it is filled with another material and not solid silver? Would that be correct? Beautiful find!!
I was actually just about to ask if you buy/sell other stuff. It was actually my hunt for cheap silver that got me into being an overall seller of...
I’ll bet it goes for a good deal over melt too. Very unique with the delicate applied leaves on the handle. Less baskety than most silver baskets...
On the first photo I had the same exact thought! Congrats Nate. That’s a whammy and a thicky.
It does kinda have that feel. I wondered if it was based on something well known maybe. Size is a good question. I haven’t seen it since I took...
