$846 USD SaleSALE Vintage French 12pc Dinner Knife Set, Silver & Ebony Handles
Silver:Antique:French Sterling Silver
Elegant antique to vintage French 12pc 9 7/8" dinner knife set, stainless steel blades with ebony & silver style handles! You may think it a little odd that we'd offer a set that might not be ebony, but faux ebony, but the best resource for these vintage knives made for use gives us a price of 75 euro each. SO, even our price is lower and the quality is higher. They're wonderful at table, look great and viable for use considering our last real ebony knives went for over $4500. We're not sure but ...
$81 USD SaleSALE Vintage Hand Painted 10 1/4" Cake Platter, HP Fruit & Foliage
Porcelain:Antique
Beautiful antique to vintage Limoges styel 10 1/4" cake platter, rich gold bordering with side handles and gorgeous hand painted blackberry, flowers & foliage! I can't quite make out the marking on the back, the maker initials of "PS" are clear but the lower is illegible (hence the Limoges 'style'). Possibly of German origins, this one is a near match to a 24 piece fruit & sorbet or tea service that we're also listing today. All with hand painted fruit themes and all gorgeous! Excellent ...

Antiques:Black Forest Carvings
Charming vintage Russian carved baer in the Black Forest style, hand carved 6 1/4" seated black bear figure, a delightful desk or writing table top pocket watch display piece!

Vintage Collectibles:Fine Vintage Sterling Silver:Tiffany
Elegant vintage 1950s Tiffany & Co. hallmarked vermeil or gilt sterling silver 6" mantel vase or goblet PAIR, gorgeous!

$251 USD SaleSALE Vintage Russian Hallmarked Niello Silver & Wheel Cut Glass Tea Cup
Silver:Vintage:800/1000 Silver
Here we have a lovely vintage Russian hallmarked silver & wheel cut glass tea cup with an ornate reticulated style, gilded or vermeil accenting and the ever popular Niello inlay! The hallmarks are post 1958 Russian, the "M" is likely for Moscow but I've not researched it more than to find the date. The "875" is the typical Russian silver content and means the piece is 87.5% pure silver so just under the .925 standard for 'sterling' silver. There is also what looks like a cyrillic maker mark but, ...

$251 USD SaleSALE Victorian Beaded Needlepoint Panel, 1850s Fraternal or Religious Sash
Antiques:Tapestry, Needlepoint, Aubusson
Not sure just what this panel was intended to become, but it has the distinct look of a fraternal order sash or belt (large!). Seems to me someone told us that the four 'F' stood for such things as 'Fidelity', etc., etc., and was a religious or fraternal insignia from Germany. Experts? Would, however, be a wonderful panel to incorporate into the top of a fine down-filled & opulently fringed accent/throw pillow for your home. Excellent condition! Never made up, so it hasn't any beadwork or ...
$251 USD SaleSALE Victorian Grand Tour Souvenir, Eglomise St. Paul's Cathedral Card Tray
Antiques:Desktop Items
I believe these were mostly made in France, but this one is one of the ones depicting an architectural highlight of London, Christopher Wren's masterpiece, St. Paul's Cathedral. The eglomise, or 'back-painted' glass panel on which the painting is done is oversized and rather 'Turner' in the colors and light of the sky, but it does have some moisture damage around the perimeter as can be easily seen and evaluated in our photos and scans. The tray itself on this one is superb! Beautifully sculpted ...
