Don, your sister sounds like mine. She thinks my collection of fabulous Haviland and Limoges porcelain is "old lady stuff". Well, I AM an old...
Bakers, Thank you! I would never have thought Towle. The 8 oz and 4 oz I figured had something to do with the amount of silver used but I've...
These forks aren't very remarkable, so feel free to ignore this. But the marks have me curious since I've never seen them before. There appears...
I was perusing my one and only book on ABP and found this photo. This celery sure looks like your pattern. [ATTACH] The caption reads: " . . ....
They are only 5" long so they are for individual use, not serving. They still seem a little awkward to me. How would you get all the slurpiness...
Ruh Roh! You didn't get the memo? Never buy collector plates. They just never seem to sell. You really have to do research to know which ones...
Me too! I just bought myself an ice cream maker as a Christmas present to me. The ice cream is so good, and I can make just enough for us.
Thanks for the info, everyone! This pattern appears to be just moderately collected and sold, but with ice cream forks, who knows? They may be...
I picked up 5 of these today in a chest of misc. silver-plate. I figured out that the pattern is called Cedric from 1905-06. After checking all...
I finally remembered who the woman reminds me of . . . Cate Blanchett! Right? When she playing one of those roles where she wears very little...
What a fascinating image! He looks like he has a faux hawk, LOL! His hair is all smoothed down and over, until it isn't (on his left side)....
Very nice! My fave is the one on the far left. I would definitely drink coffee out of that one.
Yes! That is like the silver thing I was referring to in an earlier post. Still can't find it, but it's around here somewhere. I still can't...
Whaat?! Now that I have to see (although I don't doubt you). Off to do some googling.
I had this silver holder that I can't find right now or I would post a photo. Imagine it fitting perfectly on the bottom of this vase, the vase...
For Trekkies and curious glassies only, here is that link to Star Trek Glass. These folks are SERIOUS about ST....
Hah! I though that was an old timey horn of some sort. LOL! There used to be a person who visited a lot of the ebay boards who was looking for...
Last night, I was watching Russel Crowe in the movie, The Water Diviner. The movie takes place in 1919. Crowe's character is eating in the...
Thank you both! I should have guessed that it likely had a sterling lid. So many lids and other items have gone missing. Now what to do with it....
I have this pretty cut glass powder jar, but I don't think the lid matches it, even though it fits just fine. Also, I can't tell if it's ABP or...
