Just took a look in hand. It is just part of the pattern, but thanks! The mark on the one I have, more of a single line S, not sort of an outline...
Did some research about the mark after I found it. According to the sites I checked, Simons Bros thimbles did not always have the word...
Hello, all! Had no idea there were more responses here -- seem to get intermittent notifications, just stumbled on it now. What AMAZING research...
That's as good a guess as any. Thanks. She's holding something, thought it might be a cane, but maybe a fireplace poker. :happy:
I think it is too thin for a mold. Seems more like it was stamped as a decorative piece. It is really thin, light weight. Thanks for the...
It is so thin than a 2 year old could bend it. Edit: A friend (not an antique expert) looked at this and thought it might be some kind of brass...

Glad I'm not the only one who gets emotionally attached. :rolleyes:
Back to the box, the sunshine cloth wasn't doing much (although admittedly the only one I have on hand is dark and filled with tarnish.) I put a...
Big shout out to Cxgirl. :) Great idea with the flashlight. Already ID'd the thimble. Simon Bros. Almost certainly sterling. Not huge value,...
Excellent question, Peggy. :) Hoard will expand slightly, hopefully will be funded by other items and then some. Lucien Piccard, Boucher,...
Great suggestions @cxgirl ! Just got the flashlight out and there is some kind of maker's stamp in there! Will try to get a photo... Thanks!:)
