by

Steuben Finger BowlsOffering an unusual set of Steuben finger bowls, unidentified pattern but pattern is an identical match to 6505 goblet that is on the Carder reference site.  The bowls must have been part of a larger set offered originally in this uncommon pattern with interesting border.  Excellent overall condition, some scratch marks on the bases only. I believe unsigned although take a look at one that may have a name (circled in blue pencil on photo) OR may just be scratch marks! The beautiful Steuben Finger Bowls measure 5″ across.  Fine set of 4.  Please take a closer look in our eBay Store Connectibles for these and other collectable items.

Victorian FIGURAL Napkin Ring Simpson 3 OWLS Silver Gold

by

Victorian Figural napkin rings are a joy to collect, display, set a beautiful table! Silverplate, these were produced late 1800’s through turn of the century. Victorians often used silver-plated items for their dining room where dinner was an elaborate social event. The various figural napkin rings were assigned to family members as holders of their napkins that were used all week until wash day.

Pictured here is a hard to find version of a rare ring, evaluated in the Gottschalk & Witson book as A+ rare category.  “Long Eared Owl” with owelets roosting on a branch is “truly a beautiful ring.”

Simpson, Hall, Miller & Company #204. This version has gold plating on top of the silver plating for accent areas like the leaves and the center of the base as well as details around the legs.

Condition is VERY good, with some light wear to the gold plating. Outstanding version of this exceptionally high quality figural ring. 4″ high.  Please see our connectibles store for other napkin rings.

Collectively we have  a lot of education and friendship to share.

Their purpose is to provide services and education to people interested in the history  and the collection of novelty and figural salt and pepper shakers.
