    The tea infuser was made by Paye & Baker, primary production was sterling, but they made a few items in silverplate...

    Definitely didn’t think that last one was a “B”. Need to go get my eyes checked. :watching:

    Hehe, it's not very clear, just a very familiar mark and item - used to count on selling the plated tea strainers and infusers for at least $25, looks like they still sell pretty well...

    Catching up.

    Love this, since 'allegorical' falls into my area of interest, but having a little trouble seeing how it relates to fishing. Bowl part itself styled as a little boat?

    So pre-Raphaelite. Love it too.

    A depressing Sunday reminder of what I need to do with my cameos for whoever ends up dealing with them when the day comes, & how much work is involved.

    Don't let @kyratango see it. She'll come looking for you!

    But the necklace has been knotted, the bracelet not.

    Thanks! Maybe his name was Falcon looking at the peregrine on the base. Cost me less than a dollar equivalent.

    On the one hand, it's too bad some bloke was wasting his time in prison. On the other, if he hadn't been in jail he'd probably have been too busy working to make art like that, so....
