So you surrendered.
Coal in everyone's stocking.
You could open your own botanica.
Going to guess that SIS's 'master set no. 1000' is slightly earlier than Jake's 'starter swirl set no. 900'. The graphics got fancier. Prominent...
I don't really buy it either, just trying to reconcile the age issue. Sterling lidded sugar bowls without handles seem to be a rarity themselves....
Japanese knockoff of Sackett? Probably they just tweaked their mark from time to time, but typeface for '925' is different; lion does not quite...
If the size would accommodate it, only other thing I can think of is that it could hold a flower pot with something that climbs, like some ivies.
Glasgow used a ramping lion as its city mark until 1964, but should have a couple of other marks with it. My feeling is that maker wants you to...
Of my 15 cousins, only 6 have children who lived to have children of their own. My only 2 cousins on one side are among the childless. I always...

Looks like you posted it in the spring but didn't get any answer? I can only help find the post & tell you it's a lovely little piece. As for...
I was going to ask, What the duck is this? [IMG] But assume it is the floppy duck that sold. Floppy Duck would be a good name for a cocktail....
A search for 'ceramic grape leaf shaped plate' seems to produce mainly maple leaf shaped plates from Pottery Barn. A few others with some...
Wonder how many of us have no children to leave things for & are at ages when we need to think about this. I have no nieces/nephews either....
My experience of life has taught me that you can never have too many teaspoons. These are lovely.
Thinking 70s - 80s. Trying to remember when channel set stones got very popular.
It appears to have been given to someone with the initials PB to remember their first communion in 1891, so think you can use that for age.
One inscription is 'to [someone]...from [someone]' so a gift at one time. Addendum: Looking again, think it may have been given from one family...
Hablot K. Browne, aka Phiz. The set found on eBay is the 2 volume set. As Figtree said, a single volume is going to be worth much less. Also,...
Separate names with a comma.
