I love a nice swung vase - wouldn't surprise me if that's Fenton amberina. I still have the Fenton hobnail swung bud vase in luscious plum...
Not really like the OP's, but some old toothbrush holders: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] ~Cheryl
That over-stamped mark is aggravating! It's a powder box, would have had a small puff and a small cake of powder or a screen for loose powder,...
Penca de balangandan are fairly common in silverplate and still have good value - not a mark I've seen on Brazilian silver, and to my eye looks...
I must spend way too much time looking at salt & pepper shakers, because I've seen a lot of mother of pearl tops over the years, mounted in both...
Eh, have seen somewhat similar in silverplate spoon holders, but with slots rather than round holes, and not in porcelain - personally, it looks...
Eh, they're nice folks, have bought from them in the past, but not always reliable in their info - lost some respect after running across a set of...
Lovely piece, always been a sucker for those elegant helmet-form jugs/pitchers - they started showing up around the 1780s and continued into the...
Heh, not really, Komo. "American coin silver" wasn't really a term used until makers started stamping 'Coin' in the early 19th century, and it...

Nice buy! Early-mid 19th century American coin silver - no time at the moment, but if not provided by someone else, can provide info on most...
Norwegians and other Scandinavians produced chip carved pieces, including boxes, going back centuries - but this box with its wonderful density of...
Hehe, guessing the 'Grimminger Jacob' ID came from Giorgio's 'silvercollection.it' site - truly curious, are commas, which would indicate the...
Glad I could ID it for you - Hansen & Andersen was a quality maker. Welcome to the forums - there's a wide range of both knowledge and kindness...
This is a mid 20th century cameo demi-parure that I've owned for around 45 years, it was always shiny with unremovable dark pits in the finish,...
Have to say, after almost half a century of collecting, selling, and researching silver, flatware in particular (have a fairly extensive library,...
Here is one of my Hansen & Andersen souvenir spoons, though the mark is poorly struck: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] ~Cheryl
Not sure I'm understanding your statement - pure silver anodes are used for electroplating, so the plated surface is .999 and of course it...
To my eye, the only relatively clear thing in the marks images is 'STERLING'. Perhaps the OP might try taking a better pic, but if I were to...
I've loved and collected old and/or interesting things all my life, my parents opened an antiques and used furniture store when I was 13, and...
Separate names with a comma.
