Nice, James! Aren't you glad you did your research before 'repairing' her? ~Cheryl
Just to add a bit more clarity - that is not a coat of arms, it's a crest, which would surmount a COA... ~Cheryl
Here's one similar, also appears to have been painted: [ATTACH]
Looks like a Navajo shoehorn to me, would guess around 1920-'40s, .900 fineness would be typical, but could be sterling - measurements would be...
I'd think British electroplate marks... ~Cheryl
Looks to me like a circa 1970s faux bamboo plant stand, they were usually brass-plated steel tubing - looks like someone replaced the plant...
So not just me then - doesn't bother me as much as the acrid smell of celluloid... ~Cheryl
Galalith can be used for some fairly convincing faux amber - might just be my sensitive nose, but it always smells slightly putrid to me... ~Cheryl

Pretty striking similarities in the two pieces... In hand, it is clearly a shoehorn rather than a scoop, the back-slanted angle perfect, and the...
Oh, that made me laugh! And I can see it too - even if I never find the origin of this thing, it is definitely a conversation piece... ~Cheryl
Have seen quite a few Scandinavian pieces with the engraved date done that way - as already suggested, would be the third of August, 1962. Nice...
Hehe, no secrets here, happened on it when doing one of my occasional searches for wooden spoons to add to my collection, and just really liked...
Not quite sure what to make of this recently acquired piece, if selling, would probably describe it as folk art, but from where? It's rather...
I have a German cake server of similar shape and size packed away somewhere, mine is a bit later, and the blade plated rather than silver, but it...
From the 1916 Wallace catalog (last on list, pic at lower right): [ATTACH] ~Cheryl
