I’ll try I to report back on that one. I’m more of a dark choco and pastry guy so I only break into them when I’m out of anything better. They’ve...
I thought the dragons chasing the Pearl were found more on Chinese things. Every once in a blue moon there’s a piece where the dragon actually get...
My ex brought me back a variety box of Japanese Kit Kats when she was there recently. Some are pretty good. Here’s the ones I have left. She...
Congrats!!! That nestle dish has to be desirable to a fan/collector I’d think.
Good point. I had used the terms interchangeably. It looks like cobalt in the glaze is what actually distinguishes pearl from cream.
You’re both (Bev & Rcl) right. I was using the listing photo and description in my post. A&C era seems more appropriate.
Come to think of it I’ve never seen a piece that was marked both silver soldered and EP. Usually marked silver soldered or plated (or some...
Oops yeh. The red bar under username tripped me up. What is that for? Moderator?
Thanks for checking for the pattern! You would expect it to show up. I have nothing invested in it being D&H. I thought I could even see the top...
I love the love the narrow tapered end and long tines. Even though it’s a solo piece I think I am going to eat with it. It feels good in the hand.

As Komokwa mentioned Tiffany definitely sold soldered and/or plated wares. As dragonflywink mentioned they definitely do sell for respectable...
At this pace it will take me many lifetimes to eclipse Nates bargain silver hoard but another piece has been added. A lone silver fork. In a dust...
Sure as heck is! Good eye! I got antsy and posted listing photos before I physically inspected it. I didn’t catch the mark in the photo but now...
Of all of the ones from Nutting down I like the Eva Arenas cactus painting, it’s very pretty. I’ve always been fond of the dessert. What do you do...
Great to know. The positive test caused me to question the accuracy of the tester and/or the accuracy of my direction following.
This is helpful. I have an old box from Nepal or Tibet. Some of the clear stones and some of the purplish ones tested as diamonds on the low end...
It would be worthwhile to just search “ribbon medal” sold listings and sort by highest price and just scroll. Then play with keywords. You’ll...
Any idea who may have made this teapot? Offered for auction recently. Don’t see any matches in an image search. It’s 7” tall. Sharp looking imo....
My immediate thought on first broad view of the pot was potentially Asian as well. Closer look I’d bet not but I saw that too.
