I imagine that once upon a long, long time ago, people kept their spoons on a rack, perhaps to keep them all together. In more modern times, yes,...
Quirky, those are lovely! It looks as if they are Kosta Boda, too! Try a google search for "KOSTA BODA SIGNED C.A L FW SWEDISH ART GLASS" and...
Well done, Sabre! Quirky, I was looking at some of Wärff's other signed pieces, and the word KOSTA isn't always very clear... (I DO think yours...
As wiscbirddog has said, it's a display rack for spoons. My great aunt had one similar in the 1960's, and she had a fake philodendron "growing"...

For anyone feeling left out, there's always this arm (or Greg can get it himself - so he can have an arm & a leg!): [ATTACH]...
Lisa, even at that small-ish size, I would say yes, a tea caddy. Barbour made a variety of them in the ca.1895-1900 era. Here's one example...
I'll bet you're right, Peggy!
Here's one, MMarco, being sold as part of a set: [ATTACH]...
Yes, they did! Around 2005, I bought one in pink for my son's high school girlfriend (who wore lots of rings!) She thought it was the coolest...
Very pretty, Peggy! I especially like the two rectangular ones.
All of the Sphinx porcelain I found in a quick search was marked that it had been made in JAPAN. One listing (no photo of the mark) said that the...
