Saw this mark on a neat item for sale today. Closest I find is Paul Metcalfe but I don’t see dates on his items. Anyone know it? I didn’t buy it,...
That makes more sense. I didn’t know they used much gold in that era but the paste (that’s the right term, right?) looked early, about that time...
Lol! I’ve had in my head that it was Italian since the day I bought it months ago. I think I saw the gold paint that I often see on Italian...

This came in a little mixed bag over the weekend. I think it was $10 for a Navajo sterling money clip, sterling tie clip, modern sterling pill...
I have a tooled or pressed leather comb case with a very similar art nouveau pattern. Maybe a specialty of some company making vanity items in...
If you search “antique Shuriken” you’ll see quite a variety of shapes and sizes. I don’t find this exact one though. It’s pretty thick and heavy....
